Interrogating the protein interactomes of RAS isoforms identifies PIP5K1A as a KRAS-specific vulnerability
Abstract
RAS isoforms are frequently mutated in cancer but their inhibition remains challenging. By comparing the protein interactomes of the highly similar isoforms HRAS, NRAS and KRAS, the authors here identify PIP5K1A as a KRAS-specific interactor and a target to inhibit KRAS-driven cell growth.
