ClinGen Malignant Hyperthermia Susceptibility Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGen RCV001580398 SCV001810083 uncertain significance Malignant hyperthermia of anesthesia 2023-04-06 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 threonine with methionine at codon 84 of the RYR1 protein, p.(Thr84Met). The maximum allele frequency for this variant among the six major gnomAD populations is EAS: 0.0003, 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), (PMID:30236257), however, the high MAF in the EAS population in gnomAD precludes the use of PS4. Functional studies in HEK293 cells show an increased sensitivity to RYR1 agonists PS3_Moderate (PMID:29344738). 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 0.735 supports neither a pathogenic nor a benign status for this variant. This variant has been classified as a Variant of Unknown Significance. Criteria implemented: PS3_Moderate, PM1.

Invitae RCV001858844 SCV002129395 uncertain significance RYR1-Related Disorders 2022-07-19 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 84 of the RYR1 protein (p.Thr84Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs186983396, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal dominant congenital myopathy (PMID: 29344738). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 808527). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects RYR1 function (PMID: 29344738, 33490280). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV003413790 SCV004116789 uncertain significance RYR1-related condition 2023-04-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The RYR1 c.251C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Thr84Met. This variant has been reported in two siblings with congenital myopathy and a muscle biopsy from one indicated susceptibility to malignant hyperthermia (Kondo et al 2018. PubMed ID: 29344738). However, this variant was also observed in the unaffected mother and brother, indicating this variant is less likely to be causative for a dominant RYR1-related myopathy. This variant is reported in 0.030% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/19-38933074-C-T). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
