Results
LINC00470 was a positive regulator of AKT activities
FUS interacted with both LINC00470 and AKT to form a ternary complex in the cytoplasm
LINC00470 anchored FUS in the cytoplasm and phosphorylated FUS
FUS bound to AKT and promoted AKT nuclear translocation and activation
LINC00470 decreased ubiquitination of HK1 to affect glycolysis by positively regulating AKT activation
LINC00470 is an onco-RNA, and it induced the malignant characteristics of GBM cells
LINC00470 was an independent prognostic factor in astrocytoma patients
