![The Ras oncogene is activated by mutation of its proto-oncogene precursor in
about 30% of all human cancers. Use the dropdown menus to indicate yes or no
for several possible genetic or epigenetic changes in the Ras gene, described
below, to indicate whether you would you expect to find this change in tumor
cells where one of the drivers is a Ras oncogene.
Deletion of one copy of the gene ✓ [Select]
N
Y
Methylation of CG dinucleotides
[Select]
A translocation that moves the coding region of Ras near a repressor DNA
element such that Ras is not transcribed [Select]
A missense mutation that causes Ras protein to be constitutively active (GTP-
bound) in the absence of activating signals [Select]
A copy number variant that locally amplifies the Ras gene
[ Select]
Acetylation of histones associated with the Ras gene
