Long noncoding RNA HULC modulates the phosphorylation of YB‐1 through serving as a scaffold of extracellular signal–regulated kinase and YB‐1 to enhance hepatocarcinogenesis

Abstract

We demonstrate that HULC promotes the phosphorylation of YB-1 through the extracellular signal-regulated kinase pathway, in turn regulates the interaction of YB-1 with certain oncogenic mRNAs, and consequently accelerates the translation of these mRNAs in the process of tumorigenesis.
