Detection of the transforming <it>AKT1 </it>mutation E17K in non-small cell lung cancer by high resolution melting
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>A recurrent somatic mutation, E17K, in the pleckstrin homology domain of the <it>AKT1 </it>gene, has been recently described in breast, colorectal, and ovarian cancers. AKT1 is a pivotal mediator of signalling pathways in...
