STUB1 and hepatocellular carcinoma: Here the authors, using RNA-seq and genomic amplification data, identify lincRNAs deregulated in hepatocellular carcinoma and propose that Linc01138 is stabilized by IGF2BP1/3 in the cytoplasm, and binds and stabilizes the methyltransferase PRMT5 by preventing the association of PRMT5 to the E3 ubiquitin ligase CHIP.
