In addition, WTAP also regulates the expression of certain genes associated with cancer cell movement, such as chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2), CCL3, matrix metalloproteinase 3 (MMP3), lysyl oxidase like 1 (LOXL1), hyaluronic acid synthase 1 (HAS1) and thrombospondin 1 (THBS1) [81]. The gene discussed is MMP3; the disease is cancer.
