Across TCGA cell cohorts, RNA activity of the Intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway in response to DNA damage by p53 class mediator pathway is significantly associated with the shRNA dependency of multiple genes, with the PANCREAS cohort showing a particularly strong set of associations.
The most reproducible pathway-associated genes across cancer lineages are EPHB6, SF3A3, and KCTD11, each associated with the pathway in up to 4 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 box plot shows the strongest association, EPHB6 grouped by Intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway in response to DNA damage by p53 class mediator-low versus -high activity in PANCREAS.
