CPVT-associated cardiac ryanodine receptor mutation G357S with reduced penetrance impairs Ca(2+) release termination and diminishes protein expression

Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is one of the most lethal inherited cardiac arrhythmias mostly linked to cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2) mutations with high disease penetrance. Interestingly, a novel RyR2 mutation G357S discovered in a large family of more than 1400 in...

Sumario:Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is one of the most lethal inherited cardiac arrhythmias mostly linked to cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2) mutations with high disease penetrance. Interestingly, a novel RyR2 mutation G357S discovered in a large family of more than 1400 individuals has reduced penetrance. The molecular basis for the incomplete disease penetrance in this family is unknown. To gain insights into the variable disease expression in this family, we determined the impact of the G357S mutation on RyR2 function and expression. We assessed spontaneous Ca(2+) release in HEK293 cells expressing RyR2 wildtype and the G357S mutant during store Ca(2+) overload, also known as store overload induced Ca(2+) release (SOICR). We found that the G357S mutation reduced the percentage of RyR2-expressing cells that showed SOICR. However, in cells that displayed SOICR, G357S reduced the thresholds for the activation and termination of SOICR. Furthermore, G357S decreased the thermal stability of the N-terminal domain of RyR2, and markedly reduced the protein expression of the full-length RyR2. On the other hand, the G357S mutation did not alter the Ca(2+) activation of [(3)H]ryanodine binding or the Ca(2+) induced release of Ca(2+) from the intracellular stores in HEK293 cells. These data indicate that the CPVT-associated G357S mutation enhances the arrhythmogenic SOICR and reduces RyR2 protein expression, which may be attributable to the incomplete penetrance of CPVT in this family.
