Introduction
B-Raf Proto-Oncogene, also known as BRAF is a member of the raf/mil
family of serine/threonine protein kinases. BRAF participates in regulating the
MAP kinase/ERKs signaling pathway, which eventually have an effect on cell
division, differentiation, and secretion. Mutations in BRAF have been
associated with cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome, which is a disease characterized
by heart defects, mental retardation and a distinctive facial appearance. In
addition, mutations in BRAF have also been associated with different cancers,
including non-Hodgkin lymphoma, colorectal cancer, malignant melanoma, thyroid
carcinoma, non-small cell lung carcinoma, as well as adenocarcinoma of lung.?
Description
BRAF Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated
polypeptide chain containing 360 amino acids (432-766a.a) and having a
molecular mass of 40.6kDa.
BRAF is fused to a 25 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus
& purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
Escherichia Coli.
