Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is 1 of the deadliest malignancies worldwide. Despite significant advances in diagnosis and treatment, the mortality rate from HCC persists at a substantial level. Construction of a prognostic model that can reliably predict HCC patients' overall survival is urgently needed.Two RNA-seq dataset (the Cancer Genome Atlas and International Cancer Genome Consortium) and 1 microarray dataset (GSE14520) were included in our study. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) in HCC patients was examined by differentially expressed genes analysis, functional enrichment analysis and protein-protein interaction network analysis. Subsequently, the Cancer Genome Atlas dataset was randomly divided into training and testing cohort with a prognostic model developed in the training cohort. In order to evaluate the prognostic value of the model, a comprehensive survival assessment was conducted.Five RBPs (ribosomal protein L10-like, enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2), peroxisome proliferator-Activated receptor gamma coactivator 1 alpha (PPARGC1A), zinc finger protein 239, interferon-induced protein with tetratricopeptide repeats 1) were used to construct the model. The model accurately predicted the prognosis of liver cancer patients in both the training cohort and validation cohort. HCC patients could be assigned into a high-risk group and a low-risk group by this model, and the overall survival of these 2 groups was significantly different (P
