Variant summary
Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -7 ACMG points: 2P and 9B. BS1PM1BS2BS3_Supporting
This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: 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 isoleucine with valine at codon 2321 of the RYR1 protein p.(Ile2321Val). The maximum allele frequency for this variant among the six major gnomAD populations is NFE: 0.00081, this is considered to be more common than expected for a pathogenic variant causing autosomal dominant MHS, BS1. This variant has been reported in four unrelated individuals who have a personal or family history of a malignant hyperthermia reaction, all 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). However, the high MAF in the NFE population in gnomAD precludes the use of PS4. This variant has been identified in families with genotype positive/ phenotype negative individuals (IVCT) supporting a benign status, BS2 (PMID:30236257, personal communications). Variant did not show increased sensitivity to RYR1 agonists in HEK293 assay (personal communication), BS3_Supporting. 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 0.712 does not support pathogenic or a benign status. This variant has been classified as Benign. Criteria implemented: BS1, BS2, BS3_Supporting, PM1.

Malignant hyperthermia, susceptibility to, 1    Uncertain:1Benign:4 
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 variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to determine this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -

Variant summary: RYR1 c.6961A>G (p.Ile2321Val) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the RIH domain (IPR000699) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00044 in 251396 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 5-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in RYR1 causing Malignant Hyperthermia Susceptibility phenotype (8.8e-05). c.6961A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Malignant Hyperthermia Susceptibility without strong evidence for causality (such as segregation) (examples: Brandom_2013, Miller_2018, Levano_2009, Lopez_2016, Jensson_2023). The variant has also been reported to co-occur with other pathogenic variants (RYR1: c.14545G>A, c.38T>G) (Levano_2009, Lopez_2016.). At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. These results showed no damaging effect of this variant (White_2022). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30236257, 37937776, 19191329, 27382027, 36208971, 23558838). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 133173). 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 HGMD in 5 papers but classified as VUS. Comments: Variant found in 1/870 ClinSeq participants not selected for malignant hyperthermia susceptibility (24195946); Co-occurred with another variant in RYR1 in a family with MHS (19191329). It is classified in ClinVar with 1 star as Likelybenign by Biesecker and VUS by CSER. It has a max MAF in ExAC of 0.06% (41 alleles) and in gnomAD of 0.08% (101 alleles). Frequency too high for disease - MHS prevalence is estimated at max 1/5000. -
RYR1-related myopathy    Uncertain:1 
Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as VUS-3B. Following criteria are met: 0103 - Loss of function and gain of function are known mechanisms of disease in this gene and are associated with RYR1-related myopathy. Central core disease and minicore myopathy are associated with loss of function, while a gain of function mechanism has been described in the context of malignant hyperthermia susceptibility (PMID: 27855725). (I) 0108 - This gene is associated with both recessive and dominant disease. Autosomal dominant inheritance is associated with central core disease (MIM#117000) or susceptibility to malignant hyperthermia (MIM#145600). Other phenotypes including minicore myopathy (MIM#255320) are associated with autosomal recessive inheritance (PMID: 23919265). (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from isoleucine to valine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD <0.01 (v2) (129 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0309 - An alternative amino acid change at the same position has been observed in gnomAD (v2) (2 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (I) 0502 - Missense variant with conflicting in silico predictions and uninformative conservation. (I) 0602 - Variant is located in a hotspot region or cluster of pathogenic variants. This variant is located in the RIH domain within the RYR1 central hotspot (PMID: 23919265). (SP) 0710 - Another missense variant comparable to the one identified in this case has inconclusive previous evidence for pathogenicity. The p.(Ile2321Thr) variant has a VUS entry in ClinVar associated with RYR1-related disorders. (I) 0808 - Previous reports of pathogenicity for this variant are conflicting. This variant has been reported in patients with malignant hyperthermia susceptibility (MHS) however, the variant has been considered potentially pathogenic (PMID: 30236257), a VUS (ClinVar), and as well as a polymorphism (PMIDs: 23558838, 19191329). This variant has also been identified in an individual not affected by malignant hyperthermia (PMID: 24195946) and in a MHS patient with an additional MHS diagnostic variant (PMID: 26972305). (I) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -
Congenital multicore myopathy with external ophthalmoplegia    Benign:1 
This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases allowed determination this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -
