== Function Summary ==
* **Entrez Summary**: 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. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
* **UniProt Summary**: Involved in acetylcholine transport into synaptic vesicles. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8071310}.
