Oncogenic KRAS creates an aspartate metabolism signature in colorectal cancer cells.

Abstract excerpt

Oncogenic mutations in the KRAS gene are found in 30-50% of colorectal cancers (CRC), and recent findings have demonstrated independent and nonredundant roles for wild-type and mutant KRAS alleles in governing signaling and metabolism. Here, we quantify proteomic changes manifested by KRAS mutation and KRAS allele loss in isogenic cell lines. We show that the expression of KRASG13D upregulates aspartate...
