E1h, a new allele at cholinesterase locus 1

Hum Hered. 1987;37(1):54-8. doi: 10.1159/000153677.

Abstract

Unusual inhibition characteristics in two unrelated suxamethonium-sensitive individuals were indicative of a new allele, E1h, segregating with the E1a gene. Family studies substantiate this hypothesis and three new genotypes are recognised.
