Yang et al. (2017) showed that some circRNAs could also recruit translation initiation complexes to start translating proteins by binding with the YTHDF3 recognition protein. In addition, Wu et al. (2019) found that circ_KIAA1429 accelerates the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma through m6A-YTHDF3-Zeb1. Here, YTHDF3 is linked to hepatocellular carcinoma.
