The RYR1 c.9001-2A>G variant (rs774119942, ClinVar Variation ID: 590624) is reported in the literature in at least one individual with an RYR1-related myopathy and malignant hyperthermia that also carried a second variant in RYR1 suggestive of recessive inheritance (Lawal 2021, Snoeck 2015, Todd 2018). This variant is only observed on one allele in the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The c.9001-2A>G variant disrupts the canonical splice acceptor site of intron 59, which is likely to negatively impact gene function. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Lawal TA et al.

RYR1-related disorder Pathogenic:2
Variant summary: RYR1 c.9001-2A>G is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes a 3' acceptor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251484 control chromosomes (i.e., 1 heterozygote; gnomAD v2.1, Exomes dataset). c.9001-2A>G has been reported in the literature in at least one compound heterozygous individual affected with autosomal recessive Central Core Disease and malignant hyperthermia during anesthesia (e.g., Snoeck_2015, Todd_2018, Lawal_2021). These data suggest the variant is likely to be associated with disease. 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: 25960145, 30155738, 33646171). Three submitters have reported clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 59 of the RYR1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in RYR1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23919265, 25960145, 28818389, 30611313). This variant is present in population databases (rs774119942, gnomAD 0.0009%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with RYR1-associated conditions (PMID: 25960145). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 590624). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Malignant hyperthermia, susceptibility to, 1 Uncertain:1
This variant causes a A>G nucleotide substitution at the -2 position of intron 59 of the RYR1 gene. Splicing prediction tools indicate that this variant may disrupt RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in at least two individuals affected with an RYR1-related myopathy who had a personal or family history of a malignant hyperthermia event (PMID: 25960145, 30155738, 32236737). All of these individuals were reported to carry a different pathogenic variant in the RYR1 gene in the compound heterozygous state or in unknown phase that could explain the observed malignant hyperthermia susceptibility phenotype (PMID: 25960145, 30155738, 32236737). This variant has been identified in 1/251484 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of RYR1 function due to truncation and splice variants is not an established disease mechanism for autosomal dominant malignant hyperthermia, although it is associated with other phenotype(s) (ClinVar variation ID: 590624). Due to insufficient evidence, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance for autosomal dominant malignant hyperthermia. -
