Abstract excerpt
Activated ras oncogenes have been detected in a variety of human malignancies. Activation of ras oncogenes usually occurs by point mutations within specific codons of the H-ras, N-ras, and K-ras genes. For the present study, DNA was isolated from 30 basal cell carcinomas (BCC) and 12 squamous cell carcinomas (SCC). After amplification of genomic DNA by using the polymerase chain reaction, the occurrence of point...
