Across TCGA patient cohorts, POLE mutation is significantly associated with the total protein of many other genes, with 90 significant associations in total. UCEC shows the largest number of these associations.
The most reproducible POLE-associated genes across cancer lineages are Caspase-7-cleavedD198, ATM, and mTOR_pS2448. Each is linked with POLE in more than 4 cancer types. Because this analysis shows association rather than direction, both POLE-to-partner and partner-to-POLE results are reported.
Each partner links to its own Q-omics profile. The box plot shows the strongest example, Caspase-7-cleavedD198 grouped by POLE-low versus POLE-high in COAD.
