Gene names: ACHE
Protein names and data: ACES_HUMAN , Acetylcholinesterase; AChE; 3.1.1.7; Flags: Precursor Lenght: 614 a.a.
Mass: 67796 Da
fasta formatted sequence
Function: Terminates signal transduction at the neuromuscular junction by rapid hydrolysis of the acetylcholine released into the synaptic cleft. Role in neuronal apoptosis.
Catalytic activity: Acetylcholine + H(2)O = choline + acetate.
Cellular location: Cell junction, synapse. Secreted (By similarity). Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein (By similarity). Isoform T: Nucleus. Note=Only observed in apoptotic nuclei. Isoform H: Cell membrane; Lipid-anchor, GPI- anchor; Extracellular side (By similarity).
Tissue specificity: Isoform H is highly expressed in erythrocytes.

Genetic variants

ACHE is responsible for the Yt blood group system [MIM:112100]. The molecular basis of the Yt(a)=Yt1/Yt(b)=Yt2 blood group antigens is a single variation in position 353; His-353 corresponds to Yt(a) and the rare variant with Asn-353 to Yt(b).
