Abstract excerpt
Renal mesenchymal tumors induced in F344 rats with methyl(methoxymethyl)nitrosamine (DMN-OMe) have previously been shown by our laboratory to contain transforming Ki-ras sequences, activated most commonly by a variety of codon 12 mutations. Further sequence analysis of the one DMN-OMe-induced tumor with transforming Ki-ras sequences detected by NIH 3T3 transfection assay but with no mutation in codon 12 detected...
