Abstract excerpt
The search for the genetic targets responsible for tumorigenesis has led to the identification of a number of cancer genes or cellular oncogenes (c-oncogenes). The oncogenes are activated forms of the proto-oncogenes, which are normal cellular genes and are scattered throughout the cellular genome. The number of known cellular proto-oncogenes and associated oncogenes now exceeds 30. There are different...
