K-Ras mediated murine epidermal tumorigenesis is dependent upon and associated with elevated Rac1 activity.
A common goal for potential cancer therapies is the identification of differences in protein expression or activity that would allow for the selective targeting of tumor vs. normal cells. The Ras proto-oncogene family (K-Ras, H-Ras and N-Ras) are amongst the most frequently mutated genes in human ca...
