    A146X and T242N? Lol, I think you mean A146X and T342N. Fools!

    For those who don't know, this is just a way to refer to where the mutation occurred. A146X means that in the protein, amino acid number 146, normally alanine (A), is mutated to either proline or serine. T242N means amino acid 242, normally threonine (T), is mutated to asparagine (N).
