Specific cancer-associated mutations in the switch III region of Ras increase tumorigenicity by nanocluster augmentation
Hotspot mutations of Ras drive cell transformation and tumorigenesis. Less frequent mutations in Ras are poorly characterized for their oncogenic potential. Yet insight into their mechanism of action may point to novel opportunities to target Ras. Here, we show that several cancer-associated mutatio...
