A novel, patient-derived RyR1 mutation impairs muscle function and calcium homeostasis in mice

Abstract excerpt

RYR1 is the most commonly mutated gene associated with congenital myopathies, a group of early-onset neuromuscular conditions of variable severity. The functional effects of a number of dominant RYR1 mutations have been established; however, for recessive mutations, these effects may depend on multiple factors, such as the formation of a hypomorphic allele, or on whether they are homozygous or compound...
