Function | High-affinity Na(+)-coupled choline transmembrane symporter (PubMed:11027560, PubMed:11068039, PubMed:12969261, PubMed:17005849, PubMed:23141292, PubMed:23132865, PubMed:12237312, PubMed:27569547). Functions as an electrogenic, voltage-dependent transporter with variable charge/choline stoichiometry (PubMed:17005849). Choline uptake and choline-induced current is also Cl(-)-dependent where Cl(-) is likely a regulatory ion rather than cotransported ion (PubMed:11068039, PubMed:17005849, PubMed:12237312). Plays a critical role in acetylcholine (ACh) synthesis by taking up the substrate choline from the synaptic cleft into the presynaptic nerve terminals after neurotransmitter release (PubMed:27569547). SLC5A7/CHT1-mediated choline high-affinity transport in cholinergic neurons is the rate- limiting step for production of ACh, thereby facilitating communication by subsequent action potentials (PubMed:11027560). Localized predominantly in presynaptic terminal intracellular organelles, and translocated to the plasma membrane in active form in response to neuronal activity (PubMed:12969261, PubMed:15953352). |
Cellular Location | Presynaptic cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cell projection, axon {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8BGY9} Early endosome membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle, synaptic vesicle membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=Localized at the neuromuscular junction (PubMed:27569547). Localization at the plasma membrane is transient due to the rapid endocytosis of SLC5A7/CHT1 via the clathrin-mediated pathway, where it localizes to early endosomes (PubMed:12969261, PubMed:15953352). Also localized to synaptic vesicles where it is likely mobilized to the cell surface by exocytosis (PubMed:12969261) |
Tissue Location | Expressed in putamen, spinal cord and medulla (PubMed:11027560, PubMed:11068039). Expressed in cholinergic neurons (PubMed:27569547). |

Background
Choline is a direct precursor of acetylcholine (ACh), aneurotransmitter of the central and peripheral nervous system thatregulates a variety of autonomic, cognitive, and motor functions.SLC5A7 is a Na(+)- and Cl(-)- dependent high-affinity transporterthat mediates the uptake of choline for acetylcholine synthesis incholinergic neurons (Apparsundaram et al., 2000 [PubMed11027560]).
