Q-omics provides the consensus-scored MYLK2 profile across patient tissues and cancer cell-line models. MYLK2 expression is associated with patient survival in 24 of 34 cancer types, with the highest sampling consensus in ACC. Among the 18 cancer types available for tumor–normal comparison, MYLK2 is differentially expressed in 12, with the highest sampling consensus in BLCA. Additionally, MYLK2 RNA expression shows 16,952 significant gene co-expression associations, with the highest sampling consensus in ACC. Together, these results highlight ACC, and BLCA as cancer lineages where MYLK2 shows reproducible signals across survival, tumor–normal expression, and patient cross-omics analyses.

Every result is evaluated using two consensus scores. Sampling consensus measures how consistently a finding is reproduced within a cancer lineage across different conditions. Lineage consensus measures how broadly the result is shared across cancer types, distinguishing pan-cancer signals from lineage-specific patterns.

Survival associations

This table summarizes MYLK2 survival associations across molecular data types. MYLK2 RNA expression shows survival associations in the most cancer types (24), followed by mutation status (9) and mass-spec protein abundance (3). The rightmost column indicates the cancer type with the highest sampling consensus for each molecular layer.

This table ranks reproducible MYLK2 RNA expression–survival associations across cancer types. High MYLK2 expression shows unfavorable associations in ACC, KIRP, UVM, LIHC, KICH and MESO. The ACC Kaplan–Meier curve shows clear separation, with the high-expression group declining faster, consistent with the unfavorable association (log-rank p < 0.001). Together, the overview and detailed table identify ACC as the clearest survival context for MYLK2 RNA expression.

This table ranks reproducible tumor–normal expression differences for MYLK2. A negative fold-change indicates higher expression in normal tissue than in tumor tissue. MYLK2 shows lower tumor expression in THCA and higher tumor expression in BLCA, UCEC, STAD, COAD and LIHC. The BLCA box plot shows higher MYLK2 RNA expression in tumor versus normal tissue (log2 FC = +0.556, t-test p < 0.001).

Cross-omics associations

This table shows molecular features associated with MYLK2 in patient tissues and cancer cell lines. In patient samples, MYLK2 shows the broadest associations at the RNA and protein expression levels, with ACC recurring as the lineage with the largest associated feature set. In cancer cell lines, MYLK2 RNA and mutation anchors are most strongly linked to RNA-expression features, especially in SOFT_TISSUE, while CRISPR and shRNA rows add functional-dependency signals in BONE and LARGE_INTESTINE.
