We identified that the crosstalk of the m6A reader IMP2 with long-noncoding RNA (lncRNA) ZFAS1 in an m6A modulation-dependent manner, subsequently augmented the recruitment of Obg-like ATPase 1 (OLA1) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) hydrolysis and glycolysis during CRC proliferation and progression. Here, OLA1 is linked to colorectal carcinoma.
