DISEASE: SwissProt: P15056 # Defects in BRAF are a cause of cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome (CFC syndrome) [MIM:115150]; also known as cardio-facio- cutaneous syndrome. CFC syndrome is characterized by a distinctive facial appearance, heart defects and mental retardation. Heart defects include pulmonic stenosis, atrial septal defects and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Some affected individuals present with ectodermal abnormalities such as sparse, friable hair, hyperkeratotic skin lesions and a generalized ichthyosis-like condition. Typical facial features are similar to Noonan syndrome. They include high forehead with bitemporal constriction, hypoplastic supraorbital ridges, downslanting palpebral fissures, a depressed nasal bridge, and posteriorly angulated ears with prominent helices. The inheritance of CFC syndrome is autosomal dominant. & Defects in BRAF are involved in a wide range of cancers. & Defects in BRAF are involved in lung cancer [MIM:211980]. & Defects in BRAF are involved in non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) [MIM:605027]. NHL is a cancer that starts in cells of the lymph system, which is part of the body's immune system. NHLs can occur at any age and are often marked by enlarged lymph nodes, fever and weight loss. & Defects in BRAF may be a cause of colorectal cancer (CRC) [MIM:114500].
SIMILARITY: SwissProt: P15056 ## Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. TKL Ser/Thr protein kinase family. RAF subfamily. & Contains 1 phorbol-ester/DAG-type zinc finger. & Contains 1 protein kinase domain. & Contains 1 RBD (Ras-binding) domain.

Product Usage Statements
Quality AssuranceEvaluated by Kinase assay: Reaction was conducted in a kinase buffer (40 mM Tris, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.1 mg/ml BSA) containing 2 µg inactive MEK1 (BPS #40075), 5 µM ATP, and 0.1 – 1.6 ng/µl BRAF for 60 min at room temperature. The amount of ATP transferred was measured by BPS ATP quantification reagents.
