RAS mutations and oncogenesis: not all RAS mutations are created equally
Mutation in RAS proteins is one of the most common genetic alterations observed in human and experimentally induced rodent cancers. In vivo, oncogenic mutations have been shown to occur at exons 12, 13, and 61, resulting in any one of 19 possible point mutations in a given tumor for a specific RAS...
