Could BRAF mutations in melanocytic lesions arise from DNA damage induced by ultraviolet radiation?

Nancy E Thomas1, Marianne Berwick, Marila Cordeiro-Stone.   

Abstract

Although BRAF V600 mutations in melanocytic tumors are not UV-signature mutations, it is plausible that they could still arise from error-prone replication of UV-damaged DNA. We propose a mechanism for their origin, taking into consideration melanocytic-specific BRAF tandem mutations, nearby potential pyrimidine dimer sites, the properties of specialized DNA polymerases, and biological selection.
