Abstract excerpt
Mutations within codon 12 leading to activation of Kirsten-ras (K-ras) genes occur in a wide variety of human tumors, but have been reported most frequently in pancreatic carcinomas. We studied twenty-four paraffin-embedded pancreatic and hepatic tumors and two colon carcinoma cell lines with a rapid and simple approach that exploits allele-specific amplification of genomic DNA in a polymerase chain reaction...
