Ras-mediated phosphorylation of a conserved threonine residue enhances the transactivation activities of c-Ets1 and c-Ets2 [PDF]
The Ras oncogene products regulate the expression of genes in transformed cells, and members of the Ets family of transcription factors have been implicated in this process.

No detection of c-kit gene mutations in exons 9, 11, 13 and 17 and low CD117 expression in plaque-stage mycosis fungoides [PDF]
: The growth factor receptor c-kit (CD117) is expressed in immature T-cells and in some advanced forms of mycosis fungoides. c-kit gene mutation results in unrestricted neoplastic proliferation.

Structure-specific binding of the proto-oncogene protein DEK to DNA [PDF]
The ubiquitous proto-oncogene protein DEK has been found to be associated with chromatin during the entire cell cycle. It changes the topology of DNA in chromatin and protein-free DNA through the introduction of positive supercoils. The sequence and structure specificities of DEK-DNA interactions are not completely understood. The binding of DEK to DNA

Evaluation of the relationship between c-Kit expression and mean platelet volume in classic Kaposi's sarcoma [PDF]
: Background: c-Kit is a proto-oncogene that encodes tyrosine kinase receptor (CD117). Mean platelet volume (MPV) is a useful marker, providing information on platelet function and diameter.

Transcriptional activation of c-myc proto-oncogene by WT1 protein [PDF]
The Wilms' tumor 1 gene (WT1) plays an essential role in urogenital development and malignancy. Through DNA binding, WT1 can either enhance or repress transcription depending on the context of the DNA-binding sites or the cell type in which it is expressed.
