Anti-Vesicular Acetylcholine Transporter/SLC18A3 Antibody Picoband®
Primary Antibody supplied by Boster Bio Read more ›

Product Description
The Vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT), also known as SLC18A3, is a neurotransmitter transporter which is responsible for loadingacetylcholine (ACh) into secretory organelles in neurons making acetylcholine available for secretion. It is encoded by Solute carrier family 18, member 3 (SLC18A3) gene. This gene is a member of the vesicular amine transporter family. The encoded transmembrane protein transports acetylcholine into secretory vesicles for release into the extracellular space. Acetylcholine transport utilizes a proton gradient established by a vacuolar ATPase. This gene is located within the first intron of the choline acetyltransferase gene.
