This video will give an overview of how DNA becomes a protein and how to interpret your genetic test by going over a few examples. It is important to note that just having a mutation does NOT mean you have the associated condition as there are various components at play such as the amino acid it forms, whether it creates a stop, and whether the disease is recessive or dominant. If you have any questions, or are looking for help understanding part of your genetic testing please ask below 🙂
