ChAT胆碱乙酰转移酶抗体说明书

【资料简介】

产品介绍    background:
The neurotransmitter acetycholine is synthesized from choline and acetyl-coA by the choline acetyltransferase (ChAT)enzyme,and a specific marker of cholinergic neurons.The regulation of ChATactivity is thought to be important during the development of nervous systems interactions .The reduction of ChAT activity has been found in several neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer’s and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

Function:
Catalyzes the reversible synthesis of acetylcholine (ACh) from acetyl CoA and choline at cholinergic synapses.

DISEASE:
Defects in CHAT are the cause of congenital myasthenic syndrome with episodic apnea (CMSEA) [MIM:254210]; formerly known as familial infantile myasthenia gravis 2 (FIMG2). CMSEA is an autosomal recessive congenital myasthenic syndrome. 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.

Similarity:
Belongs to the carnitine/choline acetyltransferase family.

胆碱乙酰转移酶（Choline Acetyltransferase，ChAT 又称为：choline O-Acetyltransferase ,CHOACTase;）是催化胆碱和乙酰辅酶A转变为乙酰和辅酶A的一种酶。ChAT有M,S,R三个亚型，此抗体与三个亚型都反应。
