Australian researchers at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research in Melbourne have developed new yeast- and antibody-based methods to determine how tryptophan C-mannosylation, an unusual protein glycosylation modification, impacts the stability and function of disease-relevant proteins.
KRAS is the most frequently mutated oncogene in solid tumors in general, and in lung tumors in particular. There are more patients whose lung tumors are driven by KRAS mutations than by ALK, Ros, Ret and TRK alterations. Combined. And after 40 years, they look to be getting a targeted therapy, or even two.
