Abstract excerpt
The RAF1-RAP1A interaction activates the MAPK/ERK pathway which is very crucial in the carcinogenesis process. This protein complex influences tumor formation, proliferation, and metastasis. Understanding aberrant interactions driven by clinical mutations is vital for targeted therapies. Hence, the current study focuses on the screening of clinically reported substitutions in the RAF1 and RAP1A genes using...
