RIT1 (GTP-binding protein Rit1) is an enzyme. The public catalogues list it as a drug target and a biomarker, and clinical evidence ties its variants to diagnosis, prognosis or drug response. Tied to Endometrial cancer and Non-small-cell lung cancer. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.

Biology

Plays a crucial role in coupling nerve growth factor (NGF) stimulation to the activation of both EPHB2 and MAPK14 signalling pathways and in NGF-dependent neuronal differentiation. Involved in ELK1 transactivation through the Ras-MAPK signalling cascade that mediates a wide variety of cellular functions, including cell proliferation, survival, and differentiation. Recognised by LZTR1, which mediates its ubiquitination by a BCR (BTB-CUL3-RBX1) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex. Location: Cell membrane (UniProt). Locus 1q22 (HGNC).
