Description

RPS6KC1 (Ribosomal Protein S6 Kinase C1) is a protein-coding gene that encodes a member of the ribosomal S6 kinase family. The encoded protein is a serine/threonine kinase involved in the regulation of cell growth, proliferation, and survival. It phosphorylates ribosomal protein S6 and other substrates, and is implicated in mTOR signaling pathways. RPS6KC1 is expressed in multiple tissues and has been associated with various cancers and developmental disorders.

Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Nonsense mutations leading to premature stop codons are predicted to cause loss of function.

Gain of Function (GOF)

No confirmed gain-of-function mutations reported.

Dominant Negative (DN)

No evidence for dominant-negative effects.

Pathways

• mTOR signaling pathway (Reactome: R-HSA-165159)
• Signaling by S6K (Reactome: R-HSA-166658)

Protein Summary

RPS6KC1 encodes a 118 kDa serine/threonine kinase (UniProt Q9BQI3) with an N-terminal kinase domain and a C-terminal regulatory domain. It phosphorylates ribosomal protein S6 and other targets, regulating translation and cell growth. The protein is localized in the cytoplasm and is activated by mTORC1 signaling.
