RASSF6 (Ras association domain-containing protein 6) is a gene. In the public catalogues the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role. Tied to Prostate cancer.
Involved in the induction of apoptosis, through both caspase-dependent and caspase-independent pathways. May act as a Ras effector protein. May suppress the serum-induced basal levels of NF-kappa-B.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.56 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes literature 0.93, genetic association 0.70).
In plain words · RASSF6 (Ras association domain-containing protein 6) is a gene. In the public catalogues the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role. Tied to Prostate cancer.
