A mutation in vesicular acetylcholine transporter increases tubulin acetylation compromising axonal transport

Cheng-Shan Kuo, Meng-Chieh Wang, Vignesh Mahendran Ruckmani…·Oliver Ingvar Wagner

This study identifies a mutation in the vesicular acetylcholine transporter (UNC-17) that increases tubulin acetylation, impairing axonal transport by disrupting interactions between UNC-104, UNC-17, and MEC-17.
