Across TCGA patient cohorts, IGKV2-4 RNA expression is significantly associated with the RNA expression of many other genes, with 5,438 significant associations in total. TGCT shows the largest number of these associations.
The most reproducible IGKV2-4-associated genes across cancer lineages are IGHV3OR16-12, IGHV1OR15-2, and IGHV3-63. Each is linked with IGKV2-4 in more than 30 cancer types. Because this analysis shows association rather than direction, both IGKV2-4-to-partner and partner-to-IGKV2-4 results are reported.
Each partner links to its own Q-omics profile. The scatter plot shows the strongest example, IGKV2-4 versus IGHV3OR16-12 in LUSC, with a Pearson correlation of 0.57.
