The discrepancy between the regulation of BCAR3 by mimics of tRF5-Glu in some ovarian cancer cell lines in contrast to that of SKOV3 and 2008 cells raised the possibility that the 3’UTR of BCAR3 might have been truncated due to the use of an alternative tandem APA in the UTR and 5’ to the tRF5-Glu binding site. Here, BCAR3 is linked to ovarian cancer.
