Also known as RAC1
Summary
RNASE1 (ribonuclease A family member 1, pancreatic, HGNC:10044) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 14q11.2, encoding Ribonuclease pancreatic (P07998). Endonuclease that catalyzes the cleavage of RNA on the 3’ side of pyrimidine nucleotides. In precision oncology, RAC1 P29S is associated with resistance to Dabrafenib + Vemurafenib in Melanoma (CIViC Level B); 2 further curated variant–drug associations are listed below. It is a selective cancer dependency (DepMap: 77.1% of cell lines).
This gene encodes a member of the pancreatic-type of secretory ribonucleases, a subset of the ribonuclease A superfamily. The encoded endonuclease cleaves internal phosphodiester RNA bonds on the 3’-side of pyrimidine bases. It prefers poly(C) as a substrate and hydrolyzes 2’,3’-cyclic nucleotides, with a pH optimum near 8.0. The encoded protein is monomeric and more commonly acts to degrade ds-RNA over ss-RNA. Alternative splicing occurs at this locus and four transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified.

- Results show that Glycine 38 is crucial for the full catalytic activity of the human enzyme on duplex RNA as its substitution with aspartate or alanine results in a drastic reduction in the dsRNA cleavage activity of HPR. (PMID:12237131)
- Results reveal the dendritic cell-activating activity of pancreatic ribonuclease and suggest that it is a likely participant of inflammatory and immune responses–an endogenous multifunctional immune alarmin. (PMID:15528350)
- Altogether the results suggest that the pressure-folding transition state of ribonuclease A looks like a collapsed globule with some secondary structure and a weakened hydrophobic core. This is the first direct comparison using a set of mutants. (PMID:16597833)
- RNase-1 has ribonuclease H activity. (PMID:16738129)
- Human pancreatic-ribonuclease interacts with importin alpha through different basic residues, including Lys1 and the arginine clusters 31-33 and 89-91. (PMID:16780873)
- The results were confirmed at the level of mRNA and protein, and suggested that four genes (OPCML, RNASE1, YES1 and ACK1) could play a key role in the tumorigenesis and metastasis of gastric cancer. (PMID:17109515)
- Structural and energetic aspects of the interaction between human RI (hRI) and human pancreatic ribonuclease (RNase 1), is reported. (PMID:17350650)
- Coulombic forces mediate extracellular and intracellular equilibria in a dichotomous manner that both endangers cells and defends them from the potentially lethal enzymatic activity of ribonucleases. (PMID:17705507)
- irrespective of differences in ethnic groups, RNASE1 might show markedly low heterogeneity in its genetic structure with regard to these SNPs (PMID:18219569)
- Multiple side chain conformations observed for key surface residues are proposed to be crucial for membrane binding as well as translocation and efficient RNA hydrolysis. (PMID:18495155)
- Studies illustrate of the making dimeric pancreatic RNase through removal by directed mutagenesis of most of the N-terminal alpha-helix to the remainder of the protein. (PMID:19156888)
- The nuclear transport of PE5 is critical for its cytotoxicity. (PMID:20352290)
- Vascular RNase1 and RNase5 are mainly produced by vascular endothelial cells and can serve, depending on the vascular bed, different functions in vascular homeostasis and endothelial cell responses. (PMID:21103661)
- In human pancreatic ribonuclease both glutamine 28 and arginine 39 are important for the cleavage of dsRNA. (PMID:21408145)
- The role on the dimerization process of different residues of a domain-swapped dimer human pancreatic ribonuclease variant. (PMID:21767499)
- The reduced conformational flexibility of eosinophil cationic protein can be dynamically and functionally reproduced in the RNase A scaffold. (PMID:23135272)
- Deletion of five residues in the hinge loop of pancreatic ribonuclease induces formation of a domain-swapped dimer that leads to the generation of linear aggregates of pancreatic RNase, revealed by the crystal packing. (PMID:24100329)
- Focusing on the increase in an N-glycosylated Asn residue of serum pancreatic ribonuclease 1, specifically Asn(88), affords a new diagnostic marker for pancreatic cancer (PMID:25336120)
- Data suggest that ribonuclease inhibitor (RNH1) protects HeLa cells from ribonuclease 1 (RNase 1). (PMID:27806571)
- N-glycosylation of human RNase 1 improves its resistance to both thermal denaturation and proteolytic degradation but reduces its catalytic activity.N-glycosylation of Asn34 in human RNase 1 significantly improves overall protein stability while maintaining robust catalytic activity. (PMID:30633504)
- Chromatin immunoprecipitation kinetics revealed that HDAC2 accumulates at the RNASE1 promoter upon TNF-alpha stimulation, indicating an essential role for HDAC2 in regulating RNase1 expression. Thus, proinflammatory stimulation induced recruitment of HDAC2 to attenuate histone acetylation at the RNASE1 promoter site. (PMID:31039328)
- Processing by RNase 1 forms tRNA halves and distinct Y RNA fragments in the extracellular environment. (PMID:32609822)
- Human ribonuclease 1 serves as a secretory ligand of ephrin A4 receptor and induces breast tumor initiation. (PMID:33986289)

Disease & clinical
Cancer significance
From CIViC — curated cancer-variant interpretation:
The RAC1 P29S mutation is the third most common protein-coding hotspot mutation in melanomas, ocurring in 4-9%. A preclinical study has shown that this mutation confers resistance to BRAF inhibition in-vitro.
From intOGen — cancer-driver classification: activating (oncogene-like) across 3 cancer types — HNSC, MEL, SKCM.
intOGen’s role is a computational inference from cohort mutation patterns and may diverge from the gene’s curated/literature role; read it alongside the evidence above.
