H139R | naturally occuring enzyme mutation, a polymorphism in exon 4, involved in development of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma | Homo sapiens |
additional information | significant interaction is seen between mEH exon 3 and exon 4 genotypes and between predicted mEH activity and positive family history of cancer suggesting an association of ESCC risk with mEH polymorphisms which get modified by tobacco smoking and positive family history of cancer | Homo sapiens |
Y113H | naturally occuring enzyme mutation, a polymorphism in exon 3, involved in development of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), exon 3 slow genotype predicts low mEH activity associated with the ESCC risk. Elevated ESCC risk estimates are seen in smokers independent of genotypes but the association is stronger among smokers with exon 3 variant | Homo sapiens |
