As the most important RNA epigenetic regulation in eukaryotic cells, N6-metheyladenosine (m6A) modification has been demonstrated to play significant roles in cancer progression. However, this modification in long intergenic non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs) and the corresponding functions remain elusive. Here, we showed a lincRNA LINC02551 was downregulated by AlkB Homolog 5 (ALKBH5) overexpression in a m6A-dependent manner in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Functionally, LINC02551 was required for the growth and metastasis of HCC. Mechanistically, LINC02551, a bona fide m6A target of ALKBH5, acted as a molecular adaptor that blocked the combination between DDX24 and a E3 ligase TRIM27 to decrease the ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of DDX24, ultimately facilitating HCC growth and metastasis. Thus, ALKBH5-mediated LINC02551 m6A methylation was required for HCC growth and metastasis.

Non-profit plasmid repository dedicated to helping scientists around the world share high-quality plasmids. Facilitates archiving and distributing DNA-based research reagents and associated data to scientists worldwide. Repository contains over 65,000 plasmids, including special collections on CRISPR, fluorescent proteins, and ready-to-use viral preparations. There is no cost for scientists to deposit plasmids, which saves time and money associated with shipping plasmids themselves. All plasmids are fully sequenced for validation and sequencing data is openly available. We handle the appropriate Material Transfer Agreements (MTA) with institutions, facilitating open exchange and offering intellectual property and liability protection for depositing scientists. Furthermore, we curate free educational resources for the scientific community including a blog, eBooks, video protocols, and detailed molecular biology resources.
