Description

Yun Ma and others found a micropeptide, PAMP, that suppresses lung adenocarcinoma by rewiring proline energy use, in 2026. Long non-coding RNAs can encode working micropeptides through small open reading frames, reshaping views of the supposedly non-coding genome. A forty-eight-amino-acid peptide encoded by PSMA3-AS1 emerged as a choice tumour suppressor.

PAMP was much downregulated in lung adenocarcinoma tissues and correlated with favourable prognosis. Working assays showed it inhibits cancer cell proliferation in vitro and suppresses tumour growth in vivo, acting through inhibition of PYCR1 and proline energy rewiring. Cancer teams gain a novel micropeptide way with healing power in lung adenocarcinoma.
