Summary: Enables MAP kinase kinase kinase activity and kinase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cell surface receptor protein tyrosine kinase signaling pathway; epithelial cell migration; and regionalization. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including anterior endoderm; anterior endoderm anlage; embryonic/larval midgut primordium; ganglia; and mesoderm. Used to study cancer; cardiomyopathy; and high grade glioma. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Noonan syndrome (multiple); Noonan syndrome with multiple lentigines (multiple); carcinoma (multiple); cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome (multiple); and central nervous system benign neoplasm (multiple). Orthologous to human ARAF (A-Raf proto-oncogene, serine/threonine kinase); BRAF (B-Raf proto-oncogene, serine/threonine kinase); and RAF1 (Raf-1 proto-oncogene, serine/threonine kinase).
