Proteins of this family contain 12 transmembrane domains and exchange vesicular PROTONS for cytoplasmic acetylcholine.  see SCR for organism-specific terms    Other names Vesicular Acetylcholine Transporters; Transporters, Vesicular Acetylcholine; Transporter, Vesicular Acetylcholine; Acetylcholine Transporter, Vesicular; Vesicular Acetylcholine Transporter; VAChT Proteins; Vesicular Acetylcholine Transporter Proteins; Acetylcholine Transporters, Vesicular
