A model for RAS mutation patterns in cancers: finding the sweet spot
S Li, A Balmain, CM Counter - Nature Reviews Cancer, 2018 - nature.com
The three RAS genes—HRAS, NRAS and KRAS—are collectively mutated in one-third of
human cancers, where they act as prototypic oncogenes. Interestingly, there are rather …

Defining the KRAS-and ERK-dependent transcriptome in KRAS-mutant cancers
How the KRAS oncogene drives cancer growth remains poorly understood. Therefore, we
established a systemwide portrait of KRAS-and extracellular signal–regulated kinase (ERK) …
