RNF43 ring finger protein 43

ENSG00000108375 · protein coding · Open Targets profile

E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that acts as a negative regulator of the Wnt signaling pathway by mediating the ubiquitination, endocytosis and subsequent degradation of Wnt receptor complex components Frizzled. Acts on both canonical and non-canonical Wnt signaling pathway (PubMed:18313049, PubMed:22575959, PubMed:22895187). Along with RSPO2 and ZNRF3, constitutes a master switch that governs limb specification (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P0DPR2, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18313049, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22575959, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22895187}.

In 12 of 15 cancers, the evidence for RNF43 comes mainly from mutations found in tumours

Each row is a cancer, strongest overall evidence first. The two dots show how strong the inherited (germline) and tumour-mutation (somatic) evidence is; the line between them is the gap.

Scores run from 0 (no evidence) to 1 (strongest). A missing dot at 0 means Open Targets holds no evidence of that kind. Source: Open Targets Platform, fetched live.

gnomAD loss of function constraint: o/e 0.47211000323295593 (upper bound 0.6210799813270569). Low values mean loss of function is poorly tolerated, a safety flag for inhibition.
