Department of Pediatrics, University of California, 513 Parnassus Avenue, San Francisco, California 94143, USA
Nat Genet 38:331-6. 2006..These studies establish germline KRAS mutations as a cause of human disease and infer that the constellation of developmental abnormalities seen in Noonan syndrome spectrum is, in large part, due to hyperactive Ras...
Myopathy caused by HRAS germline mutations: implications for disturbed myogenic differentiation in the presence of constitutive HRas activationIneke van der Burgt
J Med Genet 44:459-62. 2007....
Expansion of the genotypic and phenotypic spectrum in patients with KRAS germline mutationsMartin Zenker

University of California, Room HSE 302 Box 0519, San Francisco, CA 94143, USA
Blood 106:2183-5. 2005..This supports the need to characterize the spectrum of hematologic abnormalities in individuals with NS and to better define the impact of the PTPN11 lesion on the disease course in patients with NS/MPD and JMML...

Haematologica 92:1441-6. 2007
Mutation analysis of the BRAF oncogene in juvenile myelomonocytic leukemiaAndrica C H De Vries
Haematologica 92:1574-5. 2007..B-Raf plays a central role in this pathway. In 65 screened JMML patients we identified no BRAF mutations and we conclude that this gene is unlikely to play a role in the pathogenesis of JMML...

SOS1 is the second most common Noonan gene but plays no major role in cardio-facio-cutaneous syndromeMartin Zenker
J Med Genet 44:651-6. 2007..These findings corroborate that, despite being caused by gain-of-function mutations in molecules belonging to the same pathway, NS and CFCS scarcely overlap genotypically...
