Somatic mutation

MedGen UID:: 107465
•Concept ID:: C0544886
•: Cell or Molecular Dysfunction

Synonyms:	Somatic Mutation; Somatic Mutation Abnormality; Somatic Variant; Somatic Variation
SNOMED CT:	Somatic mutation (124975008)

Definition

Any mutation with an origin in cells that are not destined to become gametes. As a consequence, such mutations are not transmitted to progeny, though they will be transmitted during any mitosis within the individual. Somatic mutations may contribute to a broad variety of pathologies including cancer. [from NCI]
