DESCRIPTION

Also known as BRAF_HUMAN, BRAF, BRAF1, RAFB1. Protein kinase involved in the transduction of mitogenic signals from the cell membrane to the nucleus (Probable). Phosphorylates MAP2K1, and thereby activates the MAP kinase signal transduction pathway (PubMed:21441910, PubMed:29433126). May play a role in the postsynaptic responses of hippocampal neurons (PubMed:1508179). Monomer. Homodimer. Heterodimerizes with RAF1, and the heterodimer possesses a highly increased kinase activity compared to the respective homodimers or monomers. Heterodimerization is mitogen-regulated and enhanced by 14-3-3 proteins. MAPK1/ERK2 activation can induce a negative feedback that promotes the dissociation of the heterodimer by phosphorylating BRAF at Thr-753. Heterodimerizes (via N-terminus) with KSR1 (via N-terminus) or KSR2 (via N-terminus) in a MAP2K1-dependent manner (PubMed:29433126). Interacts with MAP2K1 and MAP2K2 (PubMed:29433126). Found in a complex with at least BRAF, HRAS, MAP2K1, MAPK3 and RGS14. Interacts with RIT1. Interacts (via N-terminus) with RGS14 (via RBD domains); the interaction mediates the formation of a ternary complex with RAF1, a ternary complex inhibited by GNAI1 (By similarity). Interacts with DGKH (PubMed:19710016). Interacts with PRMT5 (PubMed:21917714). Interacts with KSR2 (PubMed:21441910). Interacts with AKAP13, MAP2K1 and KSR1. Identified in a complex with AKAP13, MAP2K1 and KSR1 (PubMed:21102438). Interacts with FNIP1 and FNIP2 (PubMed:27353360).
