Novel RyR2 Mutation (G3118R) Is Associated With Autosomal Recessive Ventricular Fibrillation and Sudden Death: Clinical, Functional, and Computational Analysis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background The cardiac ryanodine receptor type 2 (RyR2) is a large homotetramer, located in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), which releases Ca 2+ from the SR during systole. The molecular mechanism underlying Ca 2+ sensing and gating of the RyR2 channel in health and disease is only partially elucidated. Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia (CPVT1) is the most prevalent syndrome caused by RyR2 mutations. Methods and Results This study involves investigation of a family with 4 cases of ventricular fibrillation and sudden death and physiological tests in HEK 293 cells and normal mode analysis (NMA) computation. We found 4 clinically affected members who were homozygous for a novel RyR2 mutation, G3118R, whereas their heterozygous relatives are asymptomatic. G3118R is located in the periphery of the protein, far from the mutation hotspot regions. HEK293 cells harboring G3118R mutation inhibited Ca 2+ release in response to increasing doses of caffeine, but decreased the termination threshold for store‐overload‐induced Ca 2+ release, thus increasing the fractional Ca 2+ release in response to increasing extracellular Ca 2+ . NMA showed that G3118 affects RyR2 tetramer in a dose‐dependent manner, whereas in the model of homozygous mutant RyR2, the highest entropic values are assigned to the pore and the central regions of the protein. Conclusions RyR2 G3118R is related to ventricular fibrillation and sudden death in recessive mode of inheritance and has an effect of gain of function on the protein. Despite a peripheral location, it has an allosteric effect on the stability of central and pore regions in a dose‐effect manner.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
