The most common metastasis site of CRC is the liver, and nearly 50% of patients with late-stage CRC develop liver metastasis [1, 2] . Therefore, considerable efforts have been concentrated on the relevant mechanisms concerning metastasis of CRC, and searching for novel biomarkers which contribute to improving the outcome of patients with distant metastasis is still an enormous challenge in cancer research.  \nE3 ubiquitin ligases (E3s) were involved in a variety of cellular processes ranging from protein degradation to modulating protein-protein interactions, from activating to inactivating substrates, and dysregulation of E3s often contributes to cancer development [3–6] . Accumulating evidence revealed that degradation of oncoproteins may contribute to countering the almost inevitable drug resistance due to target inhibition, and increase the peptide presentation capability of MHC molecules which synergize with cancer immunotherapy [5, 7], implying that targeting E3s may provide a promising access for therapeutic intervention of cancer. Pre-mRNA processing factor 19 (PRPF19) isan E3 ligase, involved in regulating cell damage repair [8], inhibits cell cycle arrest and prolongs cell survival in vitro [9, 10] . It is worth mentioning that the expression of PRPF19 is increased in the liver  \nmetastasis tumor tissues of CRC in a large-scale proteogenomics study [11], which drew our attention to evaluate the biological behavior of PRPF19 in CRC. As an E3 ligase, the downstream target substrates of PRPF19 are still not well characterized.  \nMyosin is an actin-dependent molecular motor, which moves along actin filaments and generates mechanical forces within cells, which are transmitted to the extracellular matrix (ECM) through integrin-mediated cell-ECM adhesions, and subsequently lead to ECM remodeling to adapt to changes in mechanical forces [12] . As one component of the actomyosin contractile apparatus, myosin light chain 9 (MYL9) regulates muscle contraction, ECM stiff","cbCaicCu9b2U6Dce","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicCu9b2U6Dce","pdf",6228245,14,"English","# Introduction\n## PRPF19 and ubiquitin ligases in CRC\n## MYL9, actomyosin, and metastasis\n## Hippo pathway and YAP1 activation\n# Results\n## PRPF19 is upregulated in CRC","[{\"question\":\"What role does PRPF19 play in colorectal cancer liver metastasis?\",\"answer\":\"PRPF19 is positively correlated with liver metastasis and predicts a worse clinical outcome in CRC.
