Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 43
Gene name Acetylcholinesterase (Yt blood group)
Gene symbol ACHE
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
ACEEARACHEN-ACHEYT
Chromosome 7
Chromosome location 7q22.1
Summary Acetylcholinesterase hydrolyzes the neurotransmitter, acetylcholine at neuromuscular junctions and brain cholinergic synapses, and thus terminates signal transmission. It is also found on the red blood cell membranes, where it constitutes the Yt blood gro
