== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/ACH4_CAEEL ACH4_CAEEL] Subunit of the non-synaptic neuronal acetylcholine receptor (AChR), which may play a role in chemotaxis towards choline. After binding choline or acetylcholine, the AChR responds by an extensive change in conformation that affects all subunits and leads to opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane.<ref>PMID:11273652</ref> <ref>PMID:9860996</ref>
