To characterize the functional impact of the BRAF and MEK1 mutations, we ectopically expressed mutant alleles in a human embryonic kidney cell line HEK293T, an immortalized bronchial epithelial cell line BEAS-2B and a lung adenocarcinoma cell line LXF-289, using the KRASG12D oncogenic variant as a positive control. This evidence concerns the gene BRAF and lung adenocarcinoma.
