- Extra Details:
- A-Raf, B-Raf, and c-Raf (Raf-1) are the main effectors recruited by GTP-bound Ras to activate the MEK-MAP kinase pathway. Activation of c-Raf is the best understood, and involves phosphorylation at multiple activating sites, including Ser338, Tyr341, Thr491, Ser494, Ser497 and Ser499. p21-activated protein kinase (PAK) has been shown to phosphorylate c-Raf at Ser338, and the Src family phosphorylates Tyr341 to induce c-Raf activity. Ser338 of c-Raf corresponds to similar sites in A-Raf (Ser299) and BRaf (Ser445), although this site is constitutively phosphorylated in B-Raf. Inhibitory 14-3-3 binding sites (Ser259 and Ser621) on c-Raf can be phosphorylated by Akt and AMPK, respectively. While A-Raf, BRaf, and c-Raf are similar in sequence and function, differential regulation has been observed. Of particular interest, B-Raf contains three consensus Akt phosphorylation sites (Ser364, Ser428, and Thr439) and lacks a site equivalent to c-Raf Tyr341. The B-Raf mutation V599E results in elevated kinase activity and is commonly found in malignant melanoma. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot Other applications not tested.
