Genes affected
RYR1 (HGNC:10483): (ryanodine receptor 1) This gene encodes a ryanodine receptor found in skeletal muscle. The encoded protein functions as a calcium release channel in the sarcoplasmic reticulum but also serves to connect the sarcoplasmic reticulum and transverse tubule. Mutations in this gene are associated with malignant hyperthermia susceptibility, central core disease, and minicore myopathy with external ophthalmoplegia. Alternatively spliced transcripts encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesAug 30, 2021The RYR1 c.487C>T; p.Arg163Cys variant (rs118192161) is reported in individuals with malignant hyperthermia (MH) and central core disease (CCD) and segregates with MH and CCD in several families (Carpenter 2009, O'Brien 1995, Quane 1993). The variant is listed in the ClinVar database (Variation ID: 12967) but is absent from general population databases (Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The arginine at codon 163 is moderately conserved, and computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.959). Additionally, experimental studies show that this variant alters protein function in vitro and in vivo, including in a mouse model of this variant (Avila 2001, Feng 2011, Tong 1997). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Avila G and Dirksen RT.

Pathogenic, reviewed by expert panelcurationClinGen Malignant Hyperthermia Susceptibility Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGenMar 29, 2022This pathogenicity assessment is relevant only for malignant hyperthermia susceptibility (MHS) inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. Variants in RYR1 can also cause other myopathies inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern or in an autosomal recessive pattern. Some of these disorders may predispose individuals to malignant hyperthermia. RYR1 variants may also contribute to a malignant hyperthermia reaction in combination with other genetic and non-genetic factors and the clinician needs to consider such factors in making management decisions. This sequence variant predicts a substitution of arginine with cysteine at codon 163 of the RYR1 protein p.(Arg163Cys). This variant is not present in a large population databases (gnomAD). This variant has been reported in over 40 unrelated individuals who have a personal or family history of a malignant hyperthermia reaction and a positive in vitro contracture test (IVCT) or caffeine halothane contracture test (CHCT) result (when the proband was unavailable for testing a positive diagnostic test result in a mutation positive relative was counted), PS4 (PMID:30236257, PMID:12151923, PMID:16163667, PMID:8220423, PMID:11575529, PMID:12059893, PMID:23558838 and others). This variant has been identified in 1 individual with negative IVCT/CHCT results, BS2_Moderate (PMID:30236257). Functional studies in HEK293 cells show an increased sensitivity to RYR1 agonists. A knock-in mouse model supports pathogenicity of this variant demonstrating a malignant hyperthermia reaction in response to agonist, as well ex vivo studies show increased response to agonist with increased calcium release, PS3 (PMID:20461000, PMID:9334205, PMID:17122579). Another variant assessed as likely pathogenic occurs at this codon, p.(Arg163Leu), PM5_Supporting. This variant resides in a region of RYR1 considered to be a hotspot for pathogenic variants that contribute to MHS, use PM1_Supporting to avoid overweighting with PM5 (PMID: 21118704). This variant segregates with MHS over seven individuals, PP1_Strong (PMID:30236257, PMID:12059893, PMID:7889656). A REVEL score > 0.85 (0.959) supports pathogenicity, PP3_Moderate. Based on using Bayes to combine criteria this variant is assessed as Pathogenic, (PMID: 29300386). Criteria implemented: PS4, PS3, PM1_Supporting, PM5_Supporting, PP1_Strong, PP3_Moderate, BS2_Moderate. -

RYR1-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 08, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 163 of the RYR1 protein (p.Arg163Cys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal dominant malignant hyperthermia (MH) and central core disease (CCD) (PMID: 8220423, 8592342, 19648156). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 12967). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt RYR1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects RYR1 function (PMID: 9334205, 11524458, 21156754). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Malignant hyperthermia of anesthesia Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineOct 17, 2019The p.Arg163Cys variant in RYR1 has been reported in at least 15 individuals with malignant hyperthermia and segregated with disease in at least 7 affected individuals from several families (Broman 2011, Carpenter 2009, Tobin 2001, Quane 1993, Wappler 2001, Monnier 2002). Of note, this variant has been associated with central core disease and rhabdomyolysis, and in one individual with heat stroke. This variant was absent from large population studies but has been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID 12967). Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In vitro functional studies support an impact on protein function (Carpenter 2009). Another variant involving this codon (p.Arg163His) has been identified in individuals with malignant hyperthermia and has been reported in ClinVar (ClinVar ID 635269). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant malignant hyperthermia. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PS4, PP1_Strong, PM2, PS3_Moderate, PP3 -
