Based on q-value <0.05 and p-value <0.001, no differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were found to be significantly up- or down-regulated between NRAS-mutated, BRAF-mutated cell lines and lines derived from melanomas harbouring other mutations (cKIT, G protein subunit alpha q (GNAQ) or G protein subunit alpha 11 (GNA11) or no mutations (wild-type), grouped together here as ‘Other’ (Supplementary Figure 1 shows results for q value >0.05, thus considered not significant). This evidence concerns the gene NRAS and melanoma.
