Description

The BCHE c.1584T>A (p.Tyr528Ter) stop-gained variant, also referred to as BCHE*500STOP, has been reported in a compound heterozygous state with a frameshift variant in one individual who was described as having sensitivity to succinylcholine and showed no BCHE protein activity in a plasma sample (Primo-Parmo et al. 1996). Control data are unavailable for this variant, which is reported at a frequency of 0.00018 in the Latino population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium, but this is based on two alleles so the variant is presumed to be rare. Due to the potential impact of stop-gained variants and the evidence from the literature, the p.Tyr528Ter variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance but suspicious for pathogenicity for butyrylcholinesterase deficiency. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population.

Description

Variant summary: BCHE c.1584T>A (p.Tyr528X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which is a commonly known mechanism for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6.4e-05 in 250512 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in BCHE causing Deficiency Of Butyrylcholine Esterase (6.4e-05 vs 0.016), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1584T>A has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with Deficiency Of Butyrylcholine Esterase who was compound heterozygous with another pathogenic variant (Primo-Parmo_1996). The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 8554068). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 555346). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
