RAS’s Cloak of Invincibility Slips at Last? Julian Downward  Cancer Cell  Volume 25, Issue 1, Pages 5-6 (January 2014) DOI: 10.1016/j.ccr.2013.12.016 Copyright © 2014 Elsevier Inc. Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 The Distribution of Mutations in KRAS Found in Human Cancers Ostrem et al. (2013) have targeted the cysteine 12 mutant, outlined in red, which accounts for about 12% of total KRAS mutations and is found in about 2% of all human cancers. Common KRAS mutations involve substitution of reactive amino acid side chains, which may be targetable by similar approaches, with the exception of valine and alanine at codon 12, marked here by horizontal crosshatches.
