    The tumor types are typical for each type of tumor suppressor gene mutation, with some mutations causing particular cancers, and other mutations causing others. The mode of inheritance of mutant tumor suppressors is that an affected member inherits a defective copy from one parent, and a normal copy from the other.

    The Gamma variant (P.1) [a] was [6] [7] one of the variants of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. [8] This variant of SARS-CoV-2 has been named lineage P.1 and has 17 amino acid substitutions, ten of which in its spike protein, including these three designated to be of particular concern: N501Y, E484K and K417T.

    SARS-CoV-2 is the virus that causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Some have been stated, to be of particular importance due to their potential for increased transmissibility, [1] increased virulence, or reduced effectiveness of vaccines against them. [2] [3] These variants contribute to the continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic.

    The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) also list a fourth spike mutation of interest: [14] D614G. This is a substitution at position 614, an aspartic acid-to-glycine substitution. [15] Other variants which have the D614G mutation include the Beta and Delta variants, and the mutation is associated with increased ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Causes_of_cancer

    A cancer syndrome or family cancer syndrome is a genetic disorder in which inherited genetic mutations in one or more genes predisposes the affected individuals to the development of cancers and may also cause the early onset of these cancers. Although cancer syndromes exhibit an increased risk of cancer, the risk varies.

    The Mu genome has a total number of 21 mutations, including 9 amino acid mutations, all of which are in the virus's spike protein code: T95I, Y144S, Y145N, R346K, E484K or the escape mutation, N501Y, D614G, P681H, and D950N. [10] It has an insertion of one amino acid at position 144/145 of the spike protein, giving a total mutation YY144 ...
