Overview

RAF proto-oncogene serine/threonine-protein kinase (Raf-1/c-Raf) is a key enzyme in human cell signaling, encoded by the *RAF1* gene. It is a member of the Raf kinase family and plays a central role in transmitting signals from membrane-associated Ras GTPases to the MAPK/ERK pathway, influencing cell growth, differentiation, and survival. Aberrant c-Raf activity has been implicated in oncogenesis, making it a target for cancer therapy development.
