Cancer Protein Description

This report provides a detailed description of a selected cancer protein with information collected from various sources, including UniProt, the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute’s Catalogue of Somatic Mutations in Cancer (COSMIC), and the Atlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematology.


Protein Name: RHOBTB1
Gene Name: RHOBTB1
Protein Full Name: Rho-related BTB domain-containing protein 1
Alias: KIAA0740; RHBT1
Mass (Da): 79417
Number AA: 696
UniProt ID: O94844
Locus ID: 9886
COSMIC ID: RHOBTB1
Gene location on chromosome: 10q21.2
Cancer protein type: TSP
Effect of cancer mutation on protein: LOSS
Effect of active protein on cancer: INHIBITS
Number of cancer specimens: 19718
Percent of cancer specimens with mutations: 0.65
Normal role description: RHOBTB1 is involved in signal transduction, regulation of actin filament system, and expression of CXCL14 in keratinocytes. Its expression is often reduced or lost in head and neck cancers resulting in loss of regulation resulting in cell migration and angiogenesis.
