“…We prioritized a list of candidate genes according to the probability of their protein products interacting with KRAS, their mRNA expression in mouse models of oncogenic KRAS G12D -driven lung cancer, and the probability of their protein products interacting with other RAS GTPases (Figure 1b-c, Figure S1a-d) 10,21 . We selected 13 proteins that represent diverse aspects of RAS biology, including RAS paralogs (HRAS, NRAS -which were supported by the identification of paralogspecific peptides), RAS regulators (RASGRF2, RAP1GDS1) 22,23 , a RAS farnesyltransferase (FNTA) 24,25 , and RAS effectors (RAF1, RGL2) 26,27 , as well as several other proteins whose functions in RAS signaling are understudied. Analysis of human lung adenocarcinoma genomic data showed that while most of these candidate genes trend to be more often amplified in human adenocarcinoma, NRAS, HRAS, and ALDH1A1 also have deep genomic deletions (Figure S1e) 28 .…”
