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]

Uncertain significance, reviewed by expert panelcurationClinGen Malignant Hyperthermia Susceptibility Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGenApr 07, 2023This 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 histidine at codon 44 of the RYR1 protein, p.(Arg44His). The maximum allele frequency for this variant among the six major gnomAD populations is AFR: 0.000066, a frequency consistent with pathogenicity for MHS. This variant has been reported in an individual with a personal or family history of an MH episode and a positive in vitro contracture test (IVCT) or caffeine halothane contracture test (CHCT) result (if the proband was unavailable for testing, a positive diagnostic test result in a mutation-positive relative was counted), PS4_Supporting (PMID:30236257 ). No functional studies were identified for this variant. 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 >0.85 supports a pathogenic status for this variant, PP3_Moderate. This variant has been classified as a Variant of Unknown Significance. Criteria implemented: PS4_Supporting, PM1, PP3_Moderate. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthJul 19, 2023This missense variant replaces arginine with histidine at codon 44 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). Although functional studies have not been reported for this variant, it occurs in a region of RYR1 considered to be a hotspot for pathogenic variants that contribute to malignant hyperthermia susceptibility (PMID: 21118704). This variant has been reported in three individuals affected with malignant hyperthermia susceptibility or with a history of a malignant hyperthermia event (PMID: 16835904, 16917943, 30236257, ClinVar: SCV000659808.3). This variant has been identified in 3/242016 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). A different variant affecting the same codon, c.130C>T (p.Arg44Cys), is considered pathogenic (ClinVar Variation ID: 133045), indicating that Arg at this position is important for RYR1 protein function. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
Central core disease, autosomal recessive Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingRady Children's Institute for Genomic Medicine, Rady Children's Hospital San DiegoNov 30, 2017This variant has previously been reported in the literature and by clinical laboratories in ClinVar as pathogenic or likely pathogenic (PMID: 16917943, 16835904) (ClinVar Variation ID 133046). There p.Arg44His variant has not been functionally characterized, but a different amino acid substitution at the same position (p.Arg44Cys) has functional evidence supporting the damaging effect on protein function (PMID: 23422674, 23459219, 12709367). RYR1 is missense intolerant, and in silico models predict the variant to be deleterious. The variant occurs at a highly conserved residue among vertebrates. It is present in the heterozygous state in the gnomAD population database at a frequency of 0.0012% (3/242016) and thus is presumed to be rare. Based on the combined evidence, the variant is classified as pathogenic. -
RYR1-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 22, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 44 of the RYR1 protein (p.Arg44His). This variant is present in population databases (rs139161723, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal dominant malignant hyperthermia (PMID: 16835904, 16917943; Invitae). This variant has been reported in individual(s) with autosomal recessive congenital myopathy (Invitae); however, the role of the variant in this condition is currently unclear. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 133046). 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%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Malignant hyperthermia of anesthesia Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineApr 12, 2018The p.Arg44His variant in RYR1 has been reported in 2 European individuals with malignant hyperthermia (MH; Galli 2006, Robinson 2006). This variant has been identified in 1/14292 African chromosomes and in 2/106944 European chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs139161723). This frequency is consistent with the frequency of MH in the general population. Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Arg44His variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role, the clinical significance of the p.Arg44His variant is uncertain.
