Line 1: Line 1:
At least one section of this diagram seems to be badly flawed: the canonical Raf pathway involves phosphorylation and activation of an MEKK kinase (aka STE11 or MAP3K), which in turns activates a MEK kinase (aka MKK, or STE7), which then in turn activates a MAPK, such as ERK, JNK or p38. So, the MEK just downstream of Raf should probably be a MEKK, and different classes of MKK should be upstream from the ERK and JNK MAPKs, with the MAPK entry redundant, and the MEK and MKK entries also mutually redundant.

It's quite possible that any of the reactions shown do exist somewhere in biology, but not be part of the canonical pathway.
