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]

Deficiency of butyrylcholinesterase Pathogenic:2

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: BCHE c.382C>T (p.Pro128Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. This variant is also referenced as p.Pro100Ser in the literature. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 250966 control chromosomes. c.382C>T has been observed in multiple individuals affected with Deficiency Of Butyrylcholine Esterase (e.g., Hidaka_2001). At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. In homozygous individuals, the BChE activity was very low or undetectable when compared to controls (Hidaka_2001). The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 11163024). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 552544). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
