In humans\, somatic and germline mutations in the genes BRAF and RAF1 are associated with cancers and developmental disorders. Our approach to investigate Raf signaling uses the roundworm Caenorhabditis elegans\, which has a single Raf ortholog termed LIN-45. I will share our insights into how Raf kinase activity\, protein localization\, and degradation are controlled in animals\, and how these mechanisms may impact human diseases.” \nThe presentation will begin at 4:00 PM in Lapham Hall N101\, preceded by an informal reception from 3:45 – 4:00 PM.
