Abstract excerpt
Kirsten rat sarcoma virus (KRAS) is one of the most important and frequently mutated oncogenes in cancer and the mutational prevalence is especially high in many gastrointestinal malignancies, including colorectal cancer and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. The KRAS protein is a small GTPase that functions as an "on/off" switch to activate downstream signaling, mainly through the mitogen-activated protein kinase...
