It's like spelling mistakes

From Robert Miller's latest newsletter from Lymphoma Survival.com (to subscribers only):

"The purpose of gene profiling is to establish clues as to who is at the
greatest risk for a particular type of cancer based on identification of
"spelling mistakes" contained in a person's DNA."
Ironic that this cancer--or all cancers?--is due to what they call a spelling mistake! Me, 
the grammar/spelling fascist that I am, the former 8th grade spelling champion!
