Abstract excerpt
Point mutations in codon 12 of the K-ras oncogene are frequent in human lung adenocarcinomas. To study the expression of the K-ras gene in these tumors we have developed a mRNA detection technique based on the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). By this technique, K-ras expression can be detected semi-quantitatively in samples of less than 100 ng total RNA. Hybridization of the amplified cDNA sequences with...
