Oncogenic NRAS has multiple effects on the malignant phenotype of human melanoma cells cultured in vitro.

Abstract excerpt

Activating mutations in the NRAS gene, which occur predominantly in codon 61 (Q61R, Q61K) are among the most common genetic events in malignant melanoma. NRAS protein with oncogenic codon 61 mutations may therefore be good therapeutic targets. In the present study, we used gene expression profiling as a method for global characterization of gene expression alterations that resulted from treatment of melanoma...
