BIOTECHNIQUES文献大全abstract::Few studies have focused on the significance of ras protein levels in human malignancy, in part because of the inherent difficulty in quantitation of the ras gene product. We have developed a method for the enzymatic determination of the ras gene product and have used this method for the quantitation of ras gene produ...
