Test Info NRAS Mutation Analysis - NRAS mutations have been described in a variety of cancers including 3-5% of colorectal carcinomas 10-20% of melanomas and 10% of acute myeloid leukemias. Mutations leading to an amino acid substitution at positions 12 13 61 and 146 of NRAS are the most common in naturally occurring neoplasms. referred Specimen(s)
