[Gene analysis of human cholinesterase variants].

Abstract excerpt

People with genetic variants of cholinesterase (ChE) have been reported to have prolonged apnea with the use of myorelaxant succinylcholine. For the silent type variant ChE, two cases of mutation have been reported. In one case, the exon 2 of ChE gene was disrupted by a 342 bp insertion of Alu element. In the other case, a frame shift mutation was identified at Gly-117 (GGT-->GGAG) to create a stop codon at...
