Expression of choline acetyltransferase mRNA in spermatogenic cells results in an accumulation of the enzyme in the postacrosomal region of mature spermatozoa.

The gene encoding choline acetyltransferase (ChAT; EC 2.3.1.6), the key enzyme in the synthesis of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACh), is shown to be expressed in rat and human testes. High levels of two ChAT transcripts of 3.5 and 1.3 kilobases were detected by Northern blot analysis of adult...
