Genetic disruption of N-RasG12D palmitoylation perturbs hematopoiesis and prevents myeloid transformation in mice
27 Mar 2020
Abstract excerpt
Oncogenic RAS mutations pose substantial challenges for rational drug discovery. Sequence variations within the hypervariable region of Ras isoforms underlie differential posttranslational modification and subcellular trafficking, potentially resulting in selective vulnerabilities. Specifically, inhibiting the palmitoylation/depalmitoylation cycle is an appealing strategy for treating NRAS mutant cancers,...
