Abstract

Alternative polyadenylation (APA) plays a major role in controlling transcriptome diversity and therapeutic resistance of cancers. However, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) involved in pathological APA remain poorly defined. Here, we functionally characterize LINC00921, a MED13L/P300-induced oncogenic lncRNA, and show that it is required for global regulation of APA in non-small cell lung Cancer (NSCLC). LINC00921 shows significant potential for reducing NSCLC radiosensitivity, and high LINC00921 levels are associated with a poor prognosis for patients with NSCLC treated with radiotherapy. LINC00921 controls NUDT21 stability by facilitating binding of NUDT21 with the E3 Ligase TRIP12. LINC00921-induced destabilization of NUDT21 promotes 3' UTR shortening of MED23 mRNA via APA, which, in turn, leads to elevated MED23 protein levels in Cancer cells and nuclear translocation of β-catenin and thereby activates expression of multiple β-catenin/T cell factor (TCF)/lymphoid enhancer-binding factor (LEF)-regulated core oncogenes (c-Myc, CCND1, and BMP4). These findings highlight the importance of functionally annotating lncRNAs controlling APA and suggest the clinical potential of therapeutics for advanced NSCLC.
