Abstract The intrinsic ability of cancer cells to evade death underpins tumorigenesis, progression, metastasis, and the survival of drug-tolerant persister (DTP) cells. Herein, we discovered that the small GTPase ARF6 plays a central role in tumor survival by fortifying RAF oncoprotein levels. ARF6 activation was sufficient to increase BRAFV600E, ARAF, and CRAF proteins through a post-transcriptional mechanism, while sustained inhibition of ARF6 eventually led to decay.
