NM_000540.3:c.7025A>G
Variant summary
Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -8 ACMG points: 0P and 8B. BS1BS2
This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.7025A>G (NM_000540.3(RYR1):c.7025A>G (p.Asn2342Ser)) variant in RYR1 is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of asparagine by serine at amino acid 2342 (p.Asn2342Ser). The highest MAF in gnomAD v4.1.0 is 0.001818 (2145/1180004 alleles) in the European (non-Finnish) population, which is greater than the ClinGen Congenital Myopathies VCEP threshold (≥0.000697) for BS1, and therefore meets this criterion (BS1). This variant has been observed in 3 homozygous individuals with no features of RYR1-related myopathy, a condition with full penetrance at an early age (BS2). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.639, which is neither above nor below the thresholds predicting a damaging or benign impact on RYR1 function. The variant is near the end of the exon, but the highest SpliceAI score is 0.04 for donor gain, and the other scores are 0.00, indicating no significant impact to splicing is predicted (no codes met). This variant was found in six probands from five families (two compound heterozygous and three heterozygous cases). However, none of these probands were scored due to the high population allele frequency, and, in specific cases, a potentially causative RYR1 variant on the same allele, a causative variant in another gene, or lack of phenotypic detail/specificity (no codes met; Synnovis Internal Data; PMIDs: 23826317, 31903994, 38982518). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as benign for RYR1-related myopathy (undetermined mode of inheritance) based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by theClinGen Congenital Myopathy VCEP: (BS1, BS2; ClinGen Congenital Myopathies VCEP Specifications Version 2.0; 02/10/2025).

This 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 asparagine with serine at codon 2342 of the RYR1 protein p.(Asn2342Ser). The maximum allele frequency for this variant among the six major gnomAD populations is SAS: 0.00206, which is considered to be more common than expected for a pathogenic variant causing autosomal dominantly inherited MHS, BS1. This variant has been reported in over ten unrelated individuals who have a personal or family history of a malignant hyperthermia reaction, at least nine of these individuals had 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)( PMID:30236257, PMID:23558838, PMID:24433488, personal communication) However, the high MAF in the NFE population in gnomAD precludes the use of PS4. This variant has been shown to segregate with IVCT status in at least three individuals across two families, PP1 (PMID:30236257, personal communication). In other families at least two genotype positive IVCT negative individuals have been reported, BS2 (PMID:15221887, personal communication). HEK293 assay shows increased sensitivity to 4CmC, PS3_Moderate (PMID: 15221887). A functional study published using B-lymphocytes showed increased acidification rates, however, this assay is not considered a standard assay by the ClinGen RYR1 VCEP for MHS (PMID:19191333). This variant resides in a region of RYR1 considered to be a hotspot for pathogenic variants that contribute to MHS, PM1 (PMID: 21118704). A REVEL score of 0.639 supports neither a pathogenic or a benign status. Criteria implemented include: PS3_Moderate, PM1, PP1, BS1, BS2. Based on using Bayes to combine criteria this variant is assessed as Likely Benign, (PMID: 29300386). -

This sequence change is predicted to replace asparagine with serine at codon 2342 of the RYR1 protein, p.(Asn2342Ser). The asparagine residue is evolutionarily conserved (100 vertebrates, UCSC), and is located in exon 43 in the central region hotspot of the RYR1 cytosolic shell (amino acids 2,101-2,458). There is a small physicochemical difference between asparagine and serine. The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v3.1 is 0.2% (121/68,012 alleles) in the European (non-Finnish) population. The prevalence of the variant in malignant hyperthermia (MH) susceptible individuals with positive in vitro contracture tests (IVCT) is significantly increased compared with the prevalence in the European (non-Finnish) population (the population with the maximum allele frequency) in gnomAD v3.1 (Odds ratio 3.06, 95% CI:1.64 to 5.68, p=0.0004; PMID: 19191333, 23558838, 25960145, 28224104, 30236257). There is conflicting segregation of the variant in MH susceptible and non-susceptible individuals in multiple families (PMID: 15221887, 20681998, 25960145). The variant demonstrates increased sensitivity to RYR1 agonist in an HEK293 in vitro assay with appropriate controls and in patient cells (PMID: 19191333, 31903994). The variant has been reported in at least two unrelated individuals with a negative IVCT (PMID: 15221887, 20681998). Computational evidence is uninformative for the missense substitution (REVEL = 0.639). Based on the classification scheme RMH Modified ACMG Guidelines v1.6.1, this variant is classified as a VARIANT OF UNCERTAIN SIGNIFICANCE. Following criteria are met: PS3_Moderate, PM1, PS4_Supporting, PP1, BS1, BS2. -

Variant summary: RYR1 c.7025A>G (p.Asn2342Ser) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the RIH domain (IPR000699) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0015 in 1614118 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0018 within the South Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygote. The observed variant frequency within South Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 21 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in RYR1 causing Malignant Hyperthermia Susceptibility phenotype (8.8e-05). c.7025A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with malignant hyperthermia susceptibility (example: Carpenter_2009, Schiemann_2020). However, these report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Malignant Hyperthermia Susceptibility. Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variants have been reported (RYR1 c.1021G>A, p.Gly341Arg; RYR1 c.7063C>T, p.Arg2355Trp), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. In functional calcium release assays, the variant showed increased sensitivity compared to wild-type control cells (Schiemann_2020). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 19825159, 31903994). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 133175). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
Variant identified in a genome or exome case(s) and assessed due to predicted null impact of the variant or pathogenic assertions in the literature or databases. Disclaimer: This variant has not undergone full assessment. The following are preliminary notes: This variant is present in ExAC at a MaxMAF of 0.24% in South Asian chromosomes (including 1 homozygote). It is present in 11 papers in HGMD, most of which classify the variant as a VUS as it has been seen in affected and unaffected patients. It is classified with 1 star in ClinVar as VUS by Emory and CSER and as Likely benign by Biesecker Lab. It is not present in the www.emhg.org RYR1 database. -
RYR1-related disorder Uncertain:1Benign:1
The RYR1 c.7025A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Asn2342Ser. This variant has been reported in several individuals with malignant hyperthermia (MH) (see, for example, Marchant et al. 2004. PubMed ID: 15221887; Miller et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 30236257). However, some individuals with MH who carry this variant also had another causative RYR1 variant (Carpenter et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19825159; Supplementary File 1, Knuiman et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30788618). In one family, this variant was detected in trans with a clear dominant, pathogenic MH variant in the proband and also observed in the proband’s three children, at least two of whom had negative in vitro contracture testing (Tammaro et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 20681998). This variant is reported in 0.21% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD v2, which is much more frequent (~10 times) than the most frequent, well-characterized MH pathogenic variants. In the updated gnomAD v4, three individuals homozygous for this variant were observed. The ClinGen Malignant Hyperthermia Susceptibility Variant Curation Expert Panel interprets this variant as likely benign in regard to autosomal dominant malignant hyperthermia susceptibility (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/133175/). This variant has also been reported with or without a second RYR1 variant in individuals with RYR1-related myopathy (Snoeck et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25960145; Garibaldi et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30611313; Fusto et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 35428369). This variant was found in a parent with congenital myopathy; however, it was not found in the individual’s similarly affected daughter, and a TPM3 variant was found in both individuals (Klein et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22473935). In summary, this variant is likely too common to be a primary cause of RYR1-related disorders and the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to conflicting evidence. -
