Targeted therapy using specific inhibitors against tyrosine kinases (TKs) is a paradigm in non-small-cell lung cancer management. However, the success of TK inhibitor (TKI) therapy depends on certain activating or acquired mutations, which render sensitivity or resistance to TKIs in the patients. The acquisition of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) T790M point mutation is the most common mechanism of resistance to TKI in non-small cell lung cancer. A number of molecular strategies are now available for molecular testing of non-small cell lung cancers. However, almost all of them are cost-intensive and laborious and require high-end advanced equipment. Thus, assays that are rapid, simple, and cost-effective, yet sensitive, are most ideal in clinical settings for screening such therapeutically relevant mutations.

Non-profit plasmid repository dedicated to helping scientists around the world share high-quality plasmids. Facilitates archiving and distributing DNA-based research reagents and associated data to scientists worldwide. Repository contains over 65,000 plasmids, including special collections on CRISPR, fluorescent proteins, and ready-to-use viral preparations. There is no cost for scientists to deposit plasmids, which saves time and money associated with shipping plasmids themselves. All plasmids are fully sequenced for validation and sequencing data is openly available. We handle the appropriate Material Transfer Agreements (MTA) with institutions, facilitating open exchange and offering intellectual property and liability protection for depositing scientists. Furthermore, we curate free educational resources for the scientific community including a blog, eBooks, video protocols, and detailed molecular biology resources.
