ClinGen Malignant Hyperthermia Susceptibility Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGen RCV001588945 SCV001816159 likely pathogenic Malignant hyperthermia, susceptibility to, 1 2023-04-07 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 leucine with arginine at codon 13 of the RYR1 protein, p.(Leu13Arg). This variant was not present in a large population database (gnomAD) at the time this variant was interpreted. This variant has been reported in three unrelated individuals who have a personal or family history of a malignant hyperthermia reaction, two of these individuals had 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_Moderate (PMID:19191329; PMID:30236257; PMID:16732084). Functional studies in HEK293 cells show an increased sensitivity to RYR1 agonists, PS3_Moderate (PMID: 341427251). This variant resides in a region of RYR1 considered to be a hotspot for pathogenic variants that contribute to MHS, PM1 (PMID: 21118704). This variant segregates with MHS in three individuals ,PP1 (PMID:19191329, personal communication, RYR1/MHS_VCEP). A REVEL score of 0.828 supports neither a pathogenic nor a benign status for this variant. This variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Criteria implemented: PS3_Moderate, PS4_Moderate, PM1, PP1.

Invitae RCV001854581 SCV002214106 pathogenic RYR1-related disorder 2023-04-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects RYR1 function (PMID: 34127251). 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 133129). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with malignant hyperthermia and/or malignant hyperthermia susceptibility (PMID: 16917943, 19191329, 23558838, 25960145, 34127251). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 13 of the RYR1 protein (p.Leu13Arg).
ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV000119614 SCV004563682 likely pathogenic not provided 2023-06-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The RYR1 c.38T>G; p.Leu13Arg variant (rs193922744) is reported in the literature in individuals affected with malignant hyperthermia susceptibility (Brandom 2013, Ibarra 2006, Levano 2009, Robinson 2006, Snoeck 2015, van den Bersselaar 2021) and is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 133129). Additionally, in vitro functional analyses in HEK293 cells demonstrate hypersensitivity to RYR1 agonists (van den Bersselaar 2021). This variant is absent from the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. Computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.828). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be likely pathogenic.
