Spindle midzone assembly

Across TCGA cell cohorts, RNA activity of the Spindle midzone assembly pathway is significantly associated with the RNA expression of multiple genes, with the LUNG_NSCLC_LUSC cohort showing a particularly strong set of associations.

The most reproducible pathway-associated genes across cancer lineages are KIF4A, CLSPN, and NCAPD2, each associated with the pathway in up to 20 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, Spindle midzone assembly activity versus KIF4A in LUNG_NSCLC_LUSC (Pearson r = 0.80).

Pathway-associated genes by consensus

Ranked by combined sampling and lineage consensus. X-score (pathway→partner) and Y-score (partner→pathway) are standardized regression coefficients; both directions are reported because the association is undirected. The reported p-values are derived from the association test.
