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]

Congenital multicore myopathy with external ophthalmoplegia Pathogenic:1
Jun 19, 2025
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: RYR1 c.4225C>T (p.Arg1409X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 249982 control chromosomes. c.4225C>T has been observed in an individual affected with Congenital multicore myopathy with external ophthalmoplegia (Garibaldi_2019). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30611313). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 159849). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

RYR1-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Nov 14, 2023
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1409*) in the RYR1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in RYR1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23919265, 25960145, 28818389, 30611313). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with central core disease (PMID: 30611313). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 159849). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Malignant hyperthermia, susceptibility to, 1 Uncertain:1
Oct 02, 2023
All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:flagged submission
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 29 of the RYR1 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with autosomal dominant malignant hyperthermia in the literature, although it has been reported in other phenotype(s) (PMID: 30611313, 33176865). This variant has been identified in 1/249982 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of RYR1 function due to truncation variants is not an established disease mechanism for autosomal dominant malignant hyperthermia, although it is associated with other phenotype(s) (clinicalgenome.org). Due to insufficient evidence, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance for autosomal dominant malignant hyperthermia. -
