LncRNA00266-1-encoded peptides RBRP bind to m6A “reader” IGF2BP1 to facilitate tumorigenesis, and the patients with high level of RBRP display an unfavourable prognosis (Zhu et al., 2020a); high expression of LINC00958 also can independently predict poor overall survival in patients with HCC. Here, IGF2BP1 is linked to hepatocellular carcinoma.
