Gene information for RNF6 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID6049
Official gene symbolRNF6
Full namering finger protein (C3H2C3 type) 6
Aliases,DKFZp686P0776,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene contains a RING-H2 finger motif. Deletions and mutations in this gene were detected in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), suggesting that this protein may be a potential tumor suppressor. Studies of the mouse counterpart suggested a role of this protein in the transcription regulation that controls germinal differentiation. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein are observed. [provided by RefSeq]
