Added comment: ARAF encodes a RAF family serine/threonine kinase that regulates MAPK/ERK signaling; the conserved Ser214 site mediates 14‑3‑3 binding. The paper reports two unrelated patients (a 12‑year‑old male with central conducting lymphatic anomaly and an adult female with lymphangiomatosis) each harboring the same de novo, ?somatic gain‑of‑function missense variant c.640T>C (p.S214P). Detailed clinical phenotyping, segregation analysis, and extensive functional validation (enhanced ERK1/2 activity in HEK293T/HeLa/HDLEC cells rescued by trametinib and a zebrafish lymphatic phenotype rescued by cobimetinib) support pathogenicity and guided successful MEK‑inhibitor therapy.
