Genes affected

CES3 (HGNC:1865): (carboxylesterase 3) This gene encodes a member of the carboxylesterase large family. The family members are responsible for the hydrolysis or transesterification of various xenobiotics, such as cocaine and heroin, and endogenous substrates with ester, thioester, or amide bonds. They may participate in fatty acyl and cholesterol ester metabolism, and may play a role in the blood-brain barrier system. This gene is expressed in several tissues, particularly in colon, trachea and in brain, and the protein participates in colon and neural drug metabolism. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been reported, but the biological validity and/or full-length nature of some variants have not been determined.[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.535C>T (p.R179C) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 4) of the CES3 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 535, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 179 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
