General Information
Term choline transmembrane transporter activity ID (Ontology) GO:0015220 (Gene Ontology)
Definition Enables the transfer of choline from one side of a membrane to the other. Choline (2-hydroxyethyltrimethylammonium) is an amino alcohol that occurs widely in living organisms as a constituent of certain types of phospholipids and in the neurotransmitter acetylcholine.
Also Known As "choline permease activity"
