Mechanistically, mtiRL is found to specifically bind the oncoprotein Annexin A2 (ANXA2) to promote its Tyr24 phosphorylation by enhancing the interactions between ANXA2 and Yes proto‐oncogene 1 (Yes1), leading to ANXA2 activation and increased p‐ANXA2‐Y24 nuclear localization in BC cells. This evidence concerns the gene YES1 and breast cancer.
