Across TCGA patient cohorts, RNA activity of the Hydrocarbon metabolic process pathway is significantly associated with the protein abundance of multiple proteins, with the HNSC cohort showing a particularly strong set of associations.
The most reproducible pathway-associated proteins across cancer lineages are ARHGAP32_S682, INPP1, and KIF21A, 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, Hydrocarbon metabolic process activity versus ARHGAP32_S682 in HNSC (Pearson r = 0.30).
