Gastrointestinal malignancies harbor actionable MET exon 14 deletions
[Paper-level Aggregated] PMCID: PMC4695055
Evidence Type(s): Oncogenic, Functional
Justification: Oncogenic: The presence of the c.3082+811A TTTTAACA > GGTTTGAT mutation in the intron 14 region of the MET gene, along with the confirmation of METex14del cases, suggests a role in cancer development, indicating its potential oncogenic nature. Functional: The mention of qualitative RT-PCR and deep sequencing indicates that the mutation may have functional implications in the context of gene expression and potential alterations in the MET gene's activity.
