Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The ryanodine receptor 1 (RyR1) is a major skeletal muscle calcium release channel located in the sarcoplasmic reticulum and involved in excitation-contraction coupling. Variants in the gene encoding RyR1 have been linked to a range of neuromuscular disorders including myopathies and malignant hyperthermia (MH). OBJECTIVE: We have identified three RYR1 variants (c.1983 G>A, p.Trp661*; c.7025A>G,...
