RNA dysregulation is a hallmark of most human cancers, including PDAC. We identify the RNA‐binding protein MEX3A as prognostic factor in PDAC. MEX3A regulates stability of transcripts for cell cycle proteins, such as CDK6, and promotes cell cycle progression and resistance to chemotherapeutic treatments.
