Across TCGA patient cohorts, RNA activity of the Metanephric distal tubule development pathway is significantly associated with the protein abundance of multiple proteins, with the BRCA cohort showing a particularly strong set of associations.
The most reproducible pathway-associated proteins across cancer lineages are ARHGAP15_S64, SEPSECS, and THBS1, 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, Metanephric distal tubule development activity versus ARHGAP15_S64 in BRCA (Pearson r = -0.31).
