Mosaic skin disorders v1.7 BRAF Bryony Thompson Classified gene: BRAF as Green List (high evidence)
Mosaic skin disorders v1.7 BRAF Bryony Thompson Gene: braf has been classified as Green List (High Evidence).
Mosaic skin disorders v1.6 BRAF Sangavi Sivagnanasundram gene: BRAF was added
gene: BRAF was added to Mosaic skin disorders. Sources: NHS GMS
Mode of inheritance for gene: BRAF was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, NOT imprinted
Publications for gene: BRAF were set to 31111470
Phenotypes for gene: BRAF were set to Melanocytic naevus syndrome (MONDO:0044792; MIM#137550)
Mode of pathogenicity for gene: BRAF was set to Loss-of-function variants (as defined in pop up message) DO NOT cause this phenotype - please provide details in the comments
Added comment: More than 3 unrelated cases with tissue specific mosaic variants.

7 cases with congenital melanocytic naevi (CMN) identified a BRAF missense mutation (p.V600E) from naevus biopsies.
Sanger sequencing of mutant BRAF (p.V600E) naevus cultured cells showed confirmed heterozygosity with an increase in somatic load compared to those extracted directly from whole tissue from CMN.
Expression of the BRAF variant protein in all naevus cells was identified using immunohistochemistry.
