The plasma cholinesterase variants of 190 mentally ill individuals having lithium prophylaxis have been examined. A significantly increased frequency of the E1f gene is reported. The effect of lithium nitrate and sodium nitrate on the plasma cholinesterase variants have been shown to be identical in the concentration range 25.0-50.0 mmol/l. The usual enzyme is slightly less sensitive to inhibition by either salt than the dibucaine resistant variant. The evidence suggest that the increased frequency of the E1f gene could be a genetic marker associated with some mental illness and not the result of lithium prophylaxis.
