摘要: Choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) catalyzes synthesis of acetylcholine (ACh) in cholinergic neurons. ACh is regulated by availability precursors choline and acetyl coenzyme A or activity ChAT; ChAT regulates under some conditions. Posttranslational phosphorylation a common mechanism for regulating the function proteins. Analysis primary sequence 69-kD human indicates that it has putative consensus sequences multiple protein kinases. phosphorylated on serine-440 threonine-456 kinase C CaM II, respectively. These events regulate enzyme, as well its binding to plasma membrane interaction with other cellular It relevant investigate differences constitutive inducible patterns physiological conditions response challenges neurons may be exposed to, determine how changes relate neurochemical transmission.
