What is Mosaicism? What is a Mosaic TP53 Mutation?
Wendy Kohlmann, MS, CGC is a licensed genetic counselor at the University of Utah Huntsman Cancer Institute. In this excerpt from her interview with Andi Last for the Learning Li-Fraumeni Syndrome podcast, she explains mosaicism, what it means when your genetic test results show a mosaic mutation of the TP53 gene, and how it may not mean that you have LFS. The Learning Li-Fraumeni Syndrome video and audio podcast is hosted by Andi Last and presented by Living LFS, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization with the mission to encourage, empower, and educate those living with Li-Fraumeni Syndrome (LFS) by connecting them with care, resources, and others who are Living LFS.
