Utilizing NGS technology, the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) consortium has reported the molecular profiling of 230 lung adenocarcinoma cases, and the detection of mutations in genes such as neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), MET proto-oncogene, receptor tyrosine kinase (MET), and erb-b2 receptor tyrosine kinase 2 gene (ERBB2)6. The gene discussed is MET; the disease is lung adenocarcinoma.
