Abstract excerpt
ras proto-oncogenes are activated by point mutation in a wide variety of human and animal tumors, making ras gene analysis a major area of clinical and basic cancer research. Activating point mutations, in each of the three ras genes (Ha-, Ki-, or N-ras), usually occur in one of three specific codons (12, 13, or 61). Thus, an adequate assessment of activating ras gene mutations should include the analysis of at...
