Across TCGA patient cohorts, RNA activity of the DNA-templated DNA replication maintenance of fidelity pathway is significantly associated with the protein abundance of multiple proteins, with the LUAD cohort showing a particularly strong set of associations.
The most reproducible pathway-associated proteins across cancer lineages are RPL12_S38, RRM2, and SMC2, each associated with the pathway in up to 10 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, DNA-templated DNA replication maintenance of fidelity activity versus RPL12_S38 in LUAD (Pearson r = 0.75).
