QKI and colorectal adenocarcinoma: Under stress conditions, QKI7 interacts with the stress granule core protein G3BP1 and shuttles internal m7G-modified transcripts into stress granules, which results in regulation of mRNA stability and translation [38]. Additionally, QKI is reported to be closely associated with the protein encoded by the Colorectal Adenocarcinoma Hypermethylated gene; thus, QKI is expected to have a role in hypermethylation and other post-transcriptional regulations involving miRNAs [39].
