Genes affected
BCHE (HGNC:983): (butyrylcholinesterase) This gene encodes a cholinesterase enzyme and member of the type-B carboxylesterase/lipase family of proteins. The encoded enzyme exhibits broad substrate specificity and is involved in the detoxification of poisons including organophosphate nerve agents and pesticides, and the metabolism of drugs including cocaine, heroin and aspirin. Humans homozygous for certain mutations in this gene exhibit prolonged apnea after administration of the muscle relaxant succinylcholine. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

Variant summary: BCHE c.1627C>T (p.Arg543Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Carboxylesterase, type B domain (IPR002018) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.6e-05 in 250836 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1627C>T has been reported in the literature as a "silent" variant in compound heterozygous genotype in individuals affected with Deficiency Of Butyrylcholine Esterase (example, Maekawa_1995, Asanuma_1999, Lando_2003). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Deficiency Of Butyrylcholine Esterase. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 10404729, 12724618, 25448037, 7634491, 20589221). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 551540). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
