ClinGen Malignant Hyperthermia Susceptibility Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGen RCV001822999 SCV002570147 pathogenic Malignant hyperthermia, susceptibility to, 1 2022-03-29 reviewed by expert panel curation 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 arginine with cysteine at codon 401 of the RYR1 protein p.(Arg401Cys). The maximum allele frequency for this variant among the six major gnomAD populations is EAS: 0.00005, a frequency consistent with pathogenicity for MHS. This variant has been reported in five unrelated individuals who have a personal or family history of a malignant hyperthermia reaction and 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), PS4_Moderate ( PMID:30236257, PMID:12434264, PMID:24433488, PMID:25735680). This variant segregates with MHS in three individuals, PP1 (PMID:12066726, PMID:18564801). Functional studies in HEK293 cells show an increased sensitivity to RYR1 agonists PS3_Moderate, (PMID:23459219). Another variant has been assessed as pathogenic occurs at this codon, p.(Arg401His), PM5 (PMID:16917943). This variant resides in a region of RYR1 considered to be a hotspot for pathogenic variants that contribute to MHS, use PM1_Supporting to avoid overweighting with PM5 (PMID: 21118704). A REVEL score > 0.85 (0.886) supports pathogenicity, PP3_Moderate. Criteria implemented: PS4_Moderate, PS3_Moderate, PM1_Supporting, PM5, PP1, PP3_Moderate. Based on using Bayes to combine criteria this variant is assessed as Pathogenic, (PMID: 29300386).

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000802489 SCV000942323 pathogenic RYR1-related disorder 2024-01-04 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 401 of the RYR1 protein (p.Arg401Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs193922764, gnomAD 0.005%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal dominant malignant hyperthermia susceptibility and/or autosomal recessive RYR1-related myopathy (PMID: 12066726, 23919265, 24433488, 25735680, 28818389, 30236257). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 133029). 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) has been performed at Invitae 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects RYR1 function (PMID: 23459219). This variant disrupts the p.Arg401 amino acid residue in RYR1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 12059893, 24433488; Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have shown that this variant increases sensitivity to 4-CmC and caffeine compare to wild-type RYR1 in HEK293 cells (PMID: 23459219, 26115329, 31841587). This variant has been reported in at least 4 individuals affected with malignant hyperthermia clinical crises and in at least 4 families affected with malignant hyperthermia susceptibility (PMID: 12066726, 12066726, 12434264, 18564801, 24433488, 25735680, 30236257). It has been shown that this variant segregates with disease in two families (PMID: 12066726). This variant has been identified in 2/282746 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV000802489 SCV000852278 pathogenic RYR1-related disorder 2024-08-12 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The RYR1 c.1201C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg401Cys. This variant has been reported to be causative for Malignant Hyperthermia (MH) in multiple families (Davis et al. 2002. PubMed ID: 12066726; Robinson et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 16917943; Gillies et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25735680; Miller et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 30236257). Functional studies in transfected cell cultures indicate that the p.Arg401Cys variant results in Ca++ channels that are more sensitive to triggering agents than wild type channels (Sato K. et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23459219). Several other substitutions at the same amino acid (p.Arg401Gly, p.Arg401His, p.Arg401Leu and p.Arg401Ser) have also been reported to be causative for MH. In addition, this variant has been reported to be causative for recessive myopathy (Amburgey et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23919265). This variant is reported in 0.0050% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD. In summary, we conclude that the c.1201C>T variant is pathogenic for dominant inheritance of MH susceptibility and also recessive inheritance of RYR1-related myopathy.
