somatic mutation
Definición
- Also known as acquired mutation, somatic mutation is an alteration of genetic matter which occurs after the time of conception and affects somatic cells (as opposed to germline mutation which affects germ cells). A principal consequence of affecting only somatic cells is that such mutations cannot be passed to offspring. [Source: Encyclopedia of Global Health; Somatic Mutation]
