A screen of the complete protein kinase gene family identifies diverse patterns of somatic mutations in human breast cancer (2005)

Stephens, P, Edkins, S, Davies, H, Greenman, C, Cox, C, Hunter, C, ...

We examined the coding sequence of 518 protein kinases, similar to 1.3 Mb of DNA per sample, in 25 breast cancers. In many tumors, we detected no somatic mutations. But a few had numerous somatic...

Somatic mutations of the protein kinase gene family in human lung cancer (2005)

Davies, H, Hunter, C, Smith, R, Stephens, P, Greenman, C, Bignell, G, ...

Protein kinases are frequently mutated in human cancer and inhibitors of mutant protein kinases have proven to be effective anticancer drugs. We screened the coding sequences of 518 protein kinases...
