Engineering KRAS mutation-specific affinity binders: A new frontier in cancer research
Highlights:
- Cancer involves significant genetic and proteomic changes, making the analysis of cellular transitions crucial.
- The KRAS gene, frequently mutated at glycine codon 12, is a key player in various cancers, including pancreatic, lung, and colon.
- Recent advancements have focused on the G12C mutation, but G12D and G12V mutations remain without targeted treatments.
- Our research develops KRAS mutant-specific binders through innovative immunization and screening techniques, targeting wild-type and multiple mutations (G12D, G12S, G12C, G12A, G12R, G12V).
- These binders are valuable for cancer pathway research, cell organization studies, prognosis, and therapy.
- Comprehensive evaluation of these tools is critical for their application in both laboratory and clinical settings.
