| Protein Effect | loss of function - predicted |
| Gene Variant Descriptions | BRAF G596V lies within the protein kinase domain of the Braf protein (UniProt.org). G596V results in activation of Erk in zebrafish models (PMID: 19376813), but impaired Braf kinase activity and does not activate downstream Mek and Erk in cell culture (PMID: 16439621), and therefore, is predicted to lead to a loss of Braf protein function. |
