## Abstract Point mutations in __ras__ genes have been found in a large number and wide variety of human tumors. These oncogenic Ras mutants are locked in an active GTPβbound state that leads to a constitutive and deregulated activation of Ras function. The dogma that __ras__ oncogenes are dominant
The influence of cell shape on the expression of proto-oncogenes was examined in normal and malignant human cells that varied in their sensitivities to contactinhibition of proliferation. Cells were constrained into varying degrees of roundness by plating onto culturc surfaces coated with different
