The origins and genetic interactions of KRAS mutations are allele- and tissue-specific

The KRAS gene is often mutated at several hotspot codons in cancer, resulting in similar, yet distinct, functional impacts on the KRAS protein. Here, the authors examine the genetic interactions of the different KRAS mutations across multiple cancer types and discover that KRAS mutations have allele...

Sumario:The KRAS gene is often mutated at several hotspot codons in cancer, resulting in similar, yet distinct, functional impacts on the KRAS protein. Here, the authors examine the genetic interactions of the different KRAS mutations across multiple cancer types and discover that KRAS mutations have allele- and tissue-specific mutagenic origins, comutation patterns, and dependency interactions.
