RNA-binding protein 6 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RBM6 gene. RBM6 orthologs have been identified in all mammals for which complete genome data are available.

RBM6 splicing factor interacts with the DNA repair protein RAD51, and is also recruited to DNA double-strand breaks where it promotes homologous recombinational repair.
