Popis: | International audience; The c-Rmil/B-raf proto-oncogene belongs to the mil/raf family encoding serine/threonine protein kinases shown to be involved in signal transduction from the membrane to the nucleus. We previously showed that the avian c-Rmil gene encodes two proteins of 94 and 95 kDa resulting from the alternative splicing of a 120 bp exon encoding 40 aminoacids (exon 10). We isolated from a mouse brain library B-raf cDNAs containing this exon 10 and a previously unidentified 36 bp insert which constitutes an additional alternatively spliced exon designated exon 8b. These two exons are located between the CR2 region and the catalytic domain of the protein. By using specific sera generated against different regions of the B-Raf protein, we identified 10 B-Raf isoforms and we defined their structure and their expression pattern in adult mouse tissues. The B-Raf proteins are mainly expressed in neural tissues and, interestingly, isoforms containing aminoacids encoded by exon 10 are specifically expressed in these tissues. We also show that several B-Raf isoforms interact with the Mek-1 protein (MAP kinase kinase) and phosphorylate this protein on serine residues 218 and 222. |
