YBX1 and neoplasm: YBX1, also known as YB-1, is highly correlated with tumor cell proliferation, drug resistance, cancer progression, and prognosis in various types of cancer.20 Our results showed that circRNA-SORE binds to YBX1 in the cytoplasm, thus preventing YBX1 nuclear translocation and consequently blocking its PRP19-mediated ubiquitination and degradation.
