Across TCGA cell cohorts, HELQ RNA expression is significantly associated with the go_rna of many other GO terms, with 3,643 significant associations in total. BLOOD_Leukemia shows the largest number of these associations.
The most reproducible HELQ-associated GO terms across cancer lineages are DNA double-strand break processing, Double-strand break repair via nonhomologous end joining, and DNA double-strand break processing involved in repair via single-strand annealing. Each is linked with HELQ in more than 14 cancer types. Because this analysis shows association rather than direction, both HELQ-to-partner and partner-to-HELQ results are reported.
Each partner links to its own Q-omics profile. The box plot shows the strongest example, DNA double-strand break processing grouped by HELQ-low versus HELQ-high in UPPER_AERODIGESTIVE_TRACT.
