BRAF Human

Source: Escherichia Coli.Sterile Filtered colorless solution.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. 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.
