In addition, the phosphorylation of argonaute 2 (AGO2) by c-Src inhibits the binding of DICER to AGO2 and promotes tumorigenesis of lung cancer, suggesting that change of these miRNA biogenesis related genes might cause alternation of miRNA signature in NSCLC (Liu et al., 2020). This evidence concerns the gene AGO2 and non-small cell lung carcinoma.
