Across TCGA patient cohorts, RNA activity of the Epidermal cell differentiation pathway is significantly associated with the protein abundance of multiple proteins, with the COAD cohort showing a particularly strong set of associations.
The most reproducible pathway-associated proteins across cancer lineages are RHBDF2_T175, SEC61B_S49, and SHANK3_S1413, each associated with the pathway in up to 1 cancer types. Since the analysis shows associations rather than directional relationships, both pathway-to-partner and partner-to-pathway views are reported.
Each partner is linked to its corresponding Q-omics profile. The scatter plot shows the strongest association, Epidermal cell differentiation activity versus RHBDF2_T175 in COAD (Pearson r = -0.39).
