RBL-2H3
RBL-2H3 (rat basophilic leukemia 2H3, CVCL_0591, ATCC CRL-2256) is a Wistar rat basophilic leukemia cell line cloned in 1978; it expresses high-affinity IgE receptors, degranulates and releases histamine on FcεRI aggregation, and is a standard in vitro allergy and secretion model.
RBL2
RBL2 (RB transcriptional corepressor like 2; also p130, Rb2, BRUWAG) is a human gene at 16q12.2 encoding the p130 pocket protein, which with E2F4/5 and the DREAM complex represses cell cycle genes in quiescence; biallelic loss causes Brunet-Wagner neurodevelopmental syndrome.
RBM10
RBM10 (RNA binding motif protein 10, S1-1) is an Xp11.3 gene encoding a spliceosomal RNA-binding protein; loss-of-function mutations cause TARP syndrome, and RBM10 loss promotes lung adenocarcinoma.
RBM15
RBM15 (OTT1), RNA binding motif protein 15, a SPEN-family RNA-binding protein at 1p13.3 with three RRMs and a SPOC domain; directs m6A methylation, maintains hematopoietic stem cells, and forms the RBM15::MKL1 fusion in t(1;22) acute megakaryoblastic leukemia.
RBM3
RBM3 (RNA-binding motif protein 3), also called RNA-binding protein 3, is a glycine-rich cold-inducible RNA-binding protein at Xp11.23, upregulated at 32–34 °C, that enhances global protein synthesis, mediates hypothermia-induced neuroprotection, and acts as a context-dependent cancer biomarker.
RBM39
RBM39 (HCC1, CAPERα, RNPC2) is a human nuclear RNA-binding protein, gene ID 9584 at 20q11.22, that acts as a U2AF65-family splicing factor and transcription co-regulator, and is degraded by sulfonamide molecular glues such as indisulam and E7820 via CRL4-DCAF15.
RBMK (РБМК)
The RBMK (РБМК), or high-power channel reactor, is a Soviet-designed water-cooled, graphite-moderated power reactor, first started in 1973 and involved in the 1986 Chernobyl disaster.
RBP4
RBP4 (retinol-binding protein 4, formerly RBP) is a 21-kDa lipocalin that carries retinol from liver stores to tissues in complex with transthyretin; elevated levels link to insulin resistance, and RBP4 inhibitors treat Stargardt disease.
RBPJ
RBPJ (CBF1, RBP-Jκ, Su(H), CSL; HGNC 5724) is a human gene encoding the DNA-binding transcriptional switch of Notch signaling, repressing target genes until NICD converts it to an activator; linked to Adams-Oliver syndrome 3 and cancer.
RBR E3 ubiquitin ligases
RBR E3 ubiquitin ligases are a family of enzymes that attach ubiquitin to proteins through a hybrid RING/HECT mechanism, including parkin, linked to Parkinson's disease.
RBS 70
The RBS 70, or Robotsystem 70, is a Swedish man-portable short-range air-defense system developed by Bofors, operational in 1977, that guides its missile along a laser beam immune to flares and jamming.
RBS-15
The RBS-15 (Robotsystem 15) is a Swedish long-range anti-ship missile developed by Saab and produced with Diehl Defence, with a range of more than 200 km.
RBW (company)
RBW (Rainbow Bridge World, 알비더블유) is a South Korean K-pop entertainment company founded in 2010 by composers Kim Jin-woo and Kim Do-hoon, home of MAMAMOO, listed on KOSDAQ in 2021, and operating a multilabel system including DSP Media and StrangeLab (formerly WM Entertainment).

RBx-10017609
RBx-10017609 (RBX 10017609) was an oral dual MMP-9/MMP-12 inhibitor developed by Ranbaxy with GSK for COPD; it completed Phase 1 safety studies and a 12-week Phase 2 proof-of-concept trial at 200 mg BID before being discontinued.
RBx-10558
RBx-10558 (PPD-10558) was a Ranbaxy-discovered HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor statin for dyslipidemia, licensed to PPD/Furiex in 2007; its Phase 2b trial in statin-associated myalgia (NCT01279590, 282 patients) missed its endpoint and development stopped in 2011.
RBx-2258 (parvosin)
RBx-2258 (parvosin, pamirosin; Schwarz code SPM 969) was Ranbaxy's first proprietary drug candidate, a uro-selective alpha-1 adrenoceptor antagonist for benign prostatic hyperplasia, licensed to Schwarz Pharma in 2002 and discontinued in Phase 2 in 2004.
RBX1
RBX1 (ring-box 1, ROC1, Hrt1) is a 108-amino-acid human RING finger protein serving as the catalytic RING component of cullin-RING/SCF E3 ubiquitin ligases, activated by cullin neddylation, essential for embryonic development, and overexpressed in cancers.
RC Celta de Vigo
