Preferred Label : Oncogenes, G-Proteins;
NCIt synonyms : G-Protein Oncogene;
NCIt definition : Mutated forms of G-protein genes which encode a diverse group of regulatory proteins
that act as molecular switches. Under normal cellular conditions, the activity of
these proteins is tightly controlled. Activation of G-protein proto-oncogenes via
mutation results in G-protein oncogenes. These aberrant genes express protein products
that disrupt normal cell function.;
