RBM46

Overview

RBM46 (RNA Binding Motif Protein 46) is an RNA-binding protein. It was identified as a MutSig/inactivation-bias hit in aggressive cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, though with low allelic fractions suggesting it may be a passenger rather than a driver.

Alterations observed in the corpus

  • RBM46 identified as a MutSig/inactivation-bias hit in aggressive cSCC (39 patients, whole exome sequencing); notably had low allelic fractions suggesting it may be a passenger rather than a driver PMID:25303977

Cancer types (linked)

  • cSCC — identified by inactivation-bias significance methods; passenger status uncertain PMID:25303977

Co-occurrence and mutual exclusivity

Therapeutic relevance

Open questions

  • Whether RBM46 mutations are true drivers or passengers in cSCC remains unresolved; low allelic fractions favor a passenger interpretation PMID:25303977
