Abstract excerpt
We have previously demonstrated the preferential activation of the K-ras gene from the susceptible A/J parent in lung tumors from F1 mouse hybrids. In the present study, the mechanism of this observation is further investigated. Higher levels of expression of A/J K-ras allele were detected in lung adenomas (30 of 30) from the C3A mouse. In addition, three K-ras alleles, designated as susceptible (Ks),...
