Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the KRAS gene is a key event in the carcinogenesis of many human cancers and may serve as a diagnostic marker and a target for therapeutic intervention. In this study we have applied three different techniques for mutation detection of KRAS exon 1 mutations: Allele specific polymeras...
