| Gene Variant Descriptions | BRAF D594G lies within the protein kinase domain of the Braf protein (UniProt.org). D594G demonstrates increased transforming ability in one of two cell lines in culture (PMID: 29533785), however, results in impaired Braf kinase activity, but leads to increased activation of Erk signaling through Craf in cell culture (PMID: 18794803, PMID: 28783719), and also demonstrates Craf activation similar to wild-type Braf, but with enhanced dimerization and the ability to bypass autoinhibitory autophosphorylation in in vitro assays (PMID: 31929109), and confers Mek inhibitor resistance in culture (PMID: 18794803), and therefore, is predicted to lead to a loss of Braf protein function. |
