Abstract
The prevalence of a novel somatic mutation (E17K) in the pleckstrin homology domain of AKT1 was investigated in pancreatic cancer using a quantitative pyrosequencing assay. This mutation was un-detectable in pancreatic cancer tissue samples (n=65) and pancreatic cell line (n=10) DNA suggesting that pancreatic cancer progression is mainly dependent on the K-Ras mutation.Entities:
