DEF6

Across TCGA patient cohorts, DEF6 protein abundance is significantly associated with the RNA expression of many other genes, with 20,570 significant associations in total. LSCC shows the largest number of these associations.

The most reproducible DEF6-associated genes across cancer lineages are CYTH4, APOBEC3H, and CSF2RB. Each is linked with DEF6 in more than 9 cancer types. Because this analysis shows association rather than direction, both DEF6-to-partner and partner-to-DEF6 results are reported.

Each partner links to its own Q-omics profile. The scatter plot shows the strongest example, DEF6 versus CYTH4 in GBM, with a Pearson correlation of 0.85.

protein abundance associated genes by consensus

Ranked by combined sampling and lineage consensus. X-score (DEF6→partner) and Y-score (partner→DEF6) are standardized regression coefficients; both directions are reported because the association is undirected. p-values are from the association test.
