Abstract excerpt
Oncogenic mutations in the kinase domain of the B-Raf protein have long been associated with cancers involving the MAPK pathway. One constitutive MAPK activating mutation in B-Raf, the V600E (valine to glutamate) replacement occurring adjacent to a site of threonine phosphorylation (T599) occurs in many types of cancer, and in a large percentage of certain cancers, such as melanoma. Because ATP binding activity...
