Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 6049
Gene name Ring finger protein 6
Gene symbol RNF6
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
-
Chromosome 13
Chromosome location 13q12.13
Summary The 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 count
