Cholinergic 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 69kD proteins while one variant encodes both the 69kD and a larger 82kD protein.
