RABL6 RAB, member RAS oncogene family like 6

Gene ID: 55684, updated on 6-Oct-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: PARF; RBEL1; pp8875; C9orf86

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the Ras superfamily of small GTPases. The encoded protein binds to both GTP and GDP and may play a role in cell growth and survival. Overexpression of this gene may play a role in breast cancer tumorigenesis, and pseudogenes of this gene are located on the long arm of chromosome 2 and the short arm of chromosome 18. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]
