We have written two reviews providing a practical guide and fundamentals of cell migration:

(1) How to select an optimal cell migration assay,
(2) How to analyze cell migration data.

We also added a perspective on AI methods of analysis.

Coming out soon in Nature Methods.

Skeetorial on our BRAF preprint!
tinyurl.com/asymmBRAF
The RAS->RAF->MEK->ERK cascade carries mutations in most human cancers. Interestingly, although we have three RAF paralogues (A, B and C), it is the BRAF that is predominantly mutated in cancer patients. (1/10)
Mechanism of MEK1 phosphorylation by the N-terminal acidic motif-mediated asymmetric BRAF dimer
The RAF/MEK/ERK signaling cascade regulates cell proliferation and differentiation and is frequently dysregulated in cancer. Approximately 90% of RAF-mutant cancers harbour mutations in B-type of Rapi...
