Decoding variants: Analyzing genetic test results
<p><strong><em>What you get back from a genetic test result:</em></strong></p>
<p>“What you end up with is sort of a list, and then a shorthand that is used describe when there is a variant ... So there’s three letter codons that each correspond to an amino acid, but most amino acids can have more than one codon all going to the same place. So there’s some tolerance if you have a mutation in there without a change in the protein coding sequence”.</p>
<p>“You can also describe this in the level of DNA the DNA at this location is no longer an A, it is a T and that may or may not have an effect on the protein coding sequence.”</p>
