Abstract excerpt
Structural alterations of protooncogene sequences may be involved in the pathogenesis of human neoplasms. We screened 54 thyroid tumors (36 benign and 18 malignant) for gene rearrangements of the protooncogenes c-myc, c-myb, c-fos, c-erb-B1, c-erb-B2, c-erb-A, N-ras, K-ras, and H-ras. Only mutati...
