| 2. Extension.extension:Name | |
| Slice Name | Name |
| Definition | An allele is one of a set of coexisting sequence variants of a gene (SO:0001023). This element is the common name for the allele. LOINC Code: (48008-7). |

| 4. Extension.extension:Name.extension | |
| Definition | An Extension May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. To make the use of extensions safe and managable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. |
| Short | ExtensionAdditional content defined by implementations |
| Comments | There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone. |

Hemiplasmic indicates that the DNA Sequence Variant is present in some but not all of the copies of mitochondrial DNA. Homoplasmic indicates that the DNA Sequence Variant is present in all of the copies of mitochondrial DNA. LOINC Code: (53034-5). |
