["Central core disease is a congenital myopathy, characterized by presence of central core-like areas in muscle fibers. Patients have mild or moderate weakness, hypotonia and motor developmental delay. The disease is caused by mutations in the human ryanodine receptor gene (RYR1), which encodes a calcium-release channel. Since the RYR1 gene is huge, containing 106 exons, mutation screening has been limited to three 'hot spots', with particular attention to the C-terminal region. Recent next-generation sequencing methods are now identifying multiple numbers of variants in patients, in which interpretation and phenotype prevision is difficult.", "In a Brazilian Caucasian family, clinical, histopathological and molecular analysis identified a new case of central core disease in a 48-year female. Sanger sequencing of the C-terminal region of the RYR1 gene identified two different missense mutations: c.14256 A >\u2009C polymorphism in exon 98 and c.14693 T >\u2009C in exon 102, which have already been described as pathogenic. Trans-position of the 2 mutations was confirmed because patient's daughter, mother and sister carried only the exon 98's mutation, a synonymous variant that was subsequently found in the frequency of 013-0,05 of alleles. Further next generation sequencing study of the whole RYR1 gene in the patient revealed the presence of additional 5 common silent polymorphisms in homozygosis and 8 polymorphisms in heterozygosis."] Do silent polymorphisms in the RYR1 gene modify the phenotype of the p.4898 I > T pathogenic mutation in central core disease : a case report?
