Abstract excerpt
The K-ras gene is frequently mutated in lung and other cancers. K-ras protein includes two splice variants, K-ras 4A and 4B. While K-ras 4B is more widely expressed, recent evidence implicates K-ras 4A in lung tumorigenesis. We found that K-ras 4A protein has a wide range of expression in a large...
