Abstract excerpt
A simple, sensitive method of DNA analysis of nucleotide substitutions, namely, single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis of polymerase chain reaction products (PCR-SSCP analysis), was used for detection of mutated ras genes in surgical specimens of human lung cancer. Of a total of 129 tumors analysed, 22 contained a mutated ras gene. Of the 66 adenocarcinomas analysed, 14 contained an activated c-Ki-ras2...
