Ge and colleagues found that the mitochondrial localization micropeptide ASAP (ATP Synthase-Associated Peptide), encoded by lncRNA LINC00467, acts as an ATP synthase regulator and interacts with ATP synthase to promote mitochondrial ATP production, while increasing cellular oxygen consumption rate (OCR) and providing energy for the occurrence of CRC [63] (Fig. 2). This evidence concerns the gene LINC00467 and colorectal carcinoma.
