This is supported by one of our studies that demonstrated ATAD3A interacts with the WAS protein family member 3 (WASF3) metastasis-promoting protein and promotes invasion of breast and colon cancer cells through regulating GPR78-mediated stabilization of WASF3 on the boundary of the mitochondrial and ER membranes [3]. This evidence concerns the gene WASF3 and malignant colon neoplasm.
