Background
Synaptic vesicles are responsible for regulating the storage and release of neurotransmitters in the nerve terminal. VAT1 is an abundant integral membrane protein of cholinergic synaptic vesicles and is thought to be involved in vesicular transport. It belongs to the quinone oxidoreductase subfamily of zinc-containing alcohol dehydrogenase proteins.
