Identified as heterozygous in individuals with possible susceptibility to malignant hyperthermia based on IVCT testing; however, these individuals also carried additional variants in RYR1 and detailed clinical and segregation information was not provided (PMID: 25735680, 25658027); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25637381, 26332594, 31407473, 30652412, 34463354, 27452334, 31680123, 20839240, 37937776, 38127101, 36939041, 25735680, 25658027) -

RYR1-related disorder Pathogenic:3
The RYR1 c.4405C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg1469Trp. This variant was reported in two siblings that also had a truncating RYR1 variant and was presumably causative for a recessive RYR1 congenital myopathy (Wilmshurst et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20839240). In another congenital myopathy patient, the c.4405C>T was found on the opposite allele as a pathogenic splice variant (Klein et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22473935). This variant has also been reported in patients with malignant hyperthermia susceptibility; however, the evidence for pathogenicity was not established with segregation or functional evidence (Fiszer et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25658027; Gillies et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25735680). We have also observed this variant in the compound heterozygous state at PreventionGenetics in two other patients with congenital myopathy. This variant is reported in 0.028% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. In summary, this variant is categorized as likely pathogenic for autosomal recessive RYR1-related myopathy. -
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 1469 of the RYR1 protein (p.Arg1469Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs200546266, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of autosomal recessive congenital myopathy (PMID: 20839240, 21911697, 30652412, 31407473; internal data). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant has been reported in individual(s) with autosomal dominant malignant hyperthermia susceptibility (PMID: 25658027, 25735680); however, the role of the variant in this condition is currently unclear. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 161372). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on RYR1 protein function. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Neuromuscular disease Pathogenic:1
The p.Arg1469Trp variant in RYR1 has been reported in 7 compound heterozygous probands who had either congenital myopathy, arthrogryposis, or minicore myopathy and segregated in at least 1 affected sibling (cis/trans not determined; Wilmshurst 2010 PMID: 20839240, Klein 2011 PMID: 21911697, Klein 2012 PMID: 22473935, Pergande 2020 PMID: 31680123, Alkhunaizi 2019 PMID: 30652412, Maggi 2013 PMID: 23394784, Krenn 2020 PMID: 31407473, Reumers 2021 PMID: 34463354). It has also been previously reported in 2 individuals with malignant hyperthermia (Fiszer 2015 PMID: 25658027, Gillies 2015 PMID: 25735680) and has been identified in ClinVar (Variation ID 161372). It has also been identified in 14/65346 (0.021%) European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Arg1469Trp variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal recessive congenital myopathy.

Congenital multicore myopathy with external ophthalmoplegia Pathogenic:1
Variant summary: RYR1 c.4405C>T (p.Arg1469Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the B30.2/SPRY domain (IPR001870) of the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00014 in 251126 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in RYR1 causing Congenital multicore myopathy with external ophthalmoplegia (0.00014 vs 0.0011), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.4405C>T has been reported in the literature in at-least four individuals affected with Autosomal Recessive RYR1-related diseases, inclcuding AR minicore myopathy (Krenn_2020, Krenn_2024, Klein_2011, LCG internal data), AR Fetal Akinesia/decreased fetal movement (Pergrande_2020), features of congenital myopathy-1B (Meng_2023) and AR hypotonia with increased fiber size variation (central core type I fiber predominance) (Dosi_2023). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with AR RYR1-related diseases. The variant also has been reported in the literature as isolated cases in a variety of AD conditions, including RYR1-related Congenital Myopathy with Central Nuclei (Wilmhurst_2010) or congenital fiber-type disproportion (Pinto_2022), Centronuclear myopathy (CNM) (Reumers_2021), pulmonary hypoplasia and AMC (Pergrande_2020, Alkhunaizi_2019), and susceptibility to Malignant Hyperthermia/Rhabdomyolysis (Gillies_2015, Fiszer_2015, Kruijt_2021). The reported assertions were mostly VUS in settings of central core myopathy and Rhabdomyolysis susceptibility (Reumers_2021, Kruijt_2021, Gillies_2015, Fiszer_2015). Thus the evidence for pathogenicity in AD RYR1-related disease was not established. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30652412, 36833224, 25658027, 25735680, 21911697, 38127101, 31407473, 32978841, 36939041, 31680123, 35548885, 34463354, 20839240). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 161372). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Malignant hyperthermia, susceptibility to, 1 Uncertain:1
This missense variant replaces arginine with tryptophan at codon 1469 of the RYR1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in two individuals affected with autosomal dominant malignant hyperthermia (PMID: 25658027, 25735680) and is associated with other phenotype(s) (ClinVar Variation ID: 161372). This variant has been identified in 36/251126 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Due to insufficient evidence, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance for autosomal dominant malignant hyperthermia. -
