Across TCGA patient cohorts, RNA activity of the Negative regulation of bicellular tight junction assembly pathway is significantly associated with the protein abundance of multiple proteins, with the LSCC cohort showing a particularly strong set of associations.
The most reproducible pathway-associated proteins across cancer lineages are ASH2L, ELF3, and EPB41L1, 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, Negative regulation of bicellular tight junction assembly activity versus ASH2L in LSCC (Pearson r = 0.37).
