In contrast, the addition of KIAA1429 affected the progression of tumor development by preferentially inducing m6A methylation on the 3′ UTR of GATA3 pre-mRNA in hepatocellular carcinoma cells, followed by the isolation of HuR and degradation of GATA3 pre-mRNA, and finally, the down-regulation of GATA3 expression (Lan T. et al., 2019). Here, VIRMA is linked to hepatocellular carcinoma.
