As all RAF Proteins, B-RAF has the characteristic <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_707/Small_lobe/1'>small N-terminal lobe</scene> and the <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_707/Large_lobe/1'>large C-terminal lobe</scene>.
As all RAF Proteins, B-RAF has the characteristic <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_707/Small_lobe/1'>small N-terminal lobe</scene> and the <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_707/Large_lobe/1'>large C-terminal lobe</scene>.
The small lobe is constituted of an antiparallel β-shift that anchors and orient the ATP. It contains a glycine rich ATP phosphate binding loop, called <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_707/Glycine_rich_loop/1'>P-loop</scene>. The large lobe interacts with the substrate that in our case is MEK1/2 who needs to be phosphorylated to be active. The <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_707/Active_site_of_1uwh/1'>catalytic site</scene> is just between the two lobes. These 2 lobes can move relative to each other, opening or closing the cleft. This has 2 major consequences on the functioning of this enzyme:<br />
