Detection of K-ras mutation in sputum by mutant-allele-specific amplification (MASA).

Human mutation - 1 Jan 1993

Takeda S, Ichii S, Nakamura Y

Abstract excerpt

From 10 to 30% of lung carcinomas examined to date contain mutant K-ras genes. We report here that the mutant-allele-specific amplification (MASA) method may be useful for detection of the K-ras mutations in cells obtained from the sputum of patients with lung cancer. The PCR product from one of...
