Across TCGA patient cohorts, RNA activity of the Ureteric bud formation 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 ECE1, SIX1_S204, and NMT1_S73, each associated with the pathway in up to 6 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, Ureteric bud formation activity versus ECE1 in COAD (Pearson r = 0.25).
