General description
BCHE (butyrylcholinesterase) is a serine hydrolase encoded by the gene BCHE. It is related to acetylcholinesterase and hydrolyzes acetylcholine as well as many other esters. It is predominantly produced in the liver, and is found in plasma, intestinal mucosa and white matter of central nervous system. This gene is localized to human chromosome 3q26, spans 70kb, and is composed of four exons and three introns.

Application
Anti-BCHE antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for global protein profiling to find new molecular biomarkers for common, multifactorial disorders.
Anti-BCHE antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Biochem/physiol Actions
Butyrylcholinesterase is widely distributed in the CNS, indicating its involvement in neural functions. It plays an important role in cholinergic neurotransmission and may have a role in other nervous system functions and in neurodegenerative diseases. Defects in this gene cause a deficiency of butyrylcholinesterase leading to prolonged apnea after the use of certain anesthetic drugs, including the muscle relaxants succinylcholine or mivacurium and other ester local anesthetics.
Features and Benefits
Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
- IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
- Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
