Fig. 3. Location of ryanodine receptor type 1 (RYR1) mutations 32–36 associated with malignant hyperthermia susceptibility and central core disease. Mutations found in European and Australian malignant hyperthermia–susceptible/central core disease families are shown at the top ; mutations found in North American malignant hyperthermia–susceptible/central core disease families are shown at the bottom of the diagram. The novel mutations identified in this study are shown in bold . The three mutational hot spot areas are shadowed . CaM = calmodulin; DHPR = dihydropyridine receptor; FKBP12 = FK506-binding protein 12.
