- MAPK activation predominantly occurs through genomic alterations in RAS and BRAF.
- BRAF is an effector kinase that functions downstream of RAS and propagates this oncogenic activity through MEK and ERK.
- Across cancers, BRAF alterations include gain of function mutations, copy number alterations, and structural rearrangements.
