Gene Name Braf
Chromosomal Location 7q34
Family Protein kinase superfamily, TKL Ser/Thr protein kinase family, RAF subfamily
Function
Protein kinase involved in the transduction of mitogenic signals from the cell membrane to the nucleus (Probable). Phosphorylates MAP2K1, and thereby activates the MAP kinase signal transduction pathway (PubMed:21441910, PubMed:29433126). Phosphorylates PFKFB2 (PubMed:36402789). May play a role in the postsynaptic responses of hippocampal neurons (PubMed:1508179).
