Across TCGA patient cohorts, RNA activity of the Cell communication by electrical coupling involved in cardiac conduction 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 CES1, PDZD2_S2341, and SYTL2, each associated with the pathway in up to 5 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, Cell communication by electrical coupling involved in cardiac conduction activity versus CES1 in COAD (Pearson r = -0.16).
