Species Reactivity NoteOther species have not yet been tested. It is expected that the antibody will also react with human due to immunogen sequence similarity.
Antibody TypePolyclonal Antibody
Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryCholinergic systems are implicated in numerous neurologic functions. Alteration in some cholinergic neurons may account for the disturbances of Alzheimer disease. The protein encoded by this gene synthesizes the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. Alternative splice variants have been found that contain alternative 5' untranslated exons. Three of the four described splice variants encode identical 69 kDa proteins while one variant encodes both the 69 kDa and a larger 82 kDa protein.
Gene Symbol
  • CHAT
  • ChAT
  • CMS1A2
  • CHOACTase
  • CMS1A
  • EC 2.3.1.6
Purification MethodImmunoAffinity Purified
UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: SwissProt: P28329 # Catalyzes the reversible synthesis of acetylcholine (ACh) from acetyl CoA and choline at cholinergic synapses.
SIZE: 748 amino acids; 82568 Da
DISEASE: SwissProt: P28329 # Defects in CHAT are the cause of familial infantile myasthenia gravis 2 (FIMG2) [MIM:254210, 254200]; also known as CMS-EA. FIMG2 patients have myasthenic symptoms since birth or early infancy, negative tests for anti-AChR antibodies, and abrupt episodic crises with increased weakness, bulbar paralysis, and apnea precipitated by undue exertion, fever, or excitement. Inheritance is autosomal recessive.
SIMILARITY: SwissProt: P28329 ## Belongs to the carnitine/choline acetyltransferase family.
