Gene Variant Descriptions | BRAF L525R lies within the protein kinase domain of the Braf protein (UniProt.org). L525R results in increased activation of Erk signaling in a dimer-dependent but RAS-independent manner (PMID: 31515458, PMID: 28972961), and therefore, is predicted to lead to a gain of Braf protein function. |
