Positive regulation of cytoplasmic translational initiation

associated omics data
GO:1904690Ontology (GO BP)GO biological process · ~5 member genes

Q-omics provides the Positive regulation of cytoplasmic translational initiation (GO:1904690) pathway profile, scoring each patient from the combined activity of its roughly 5 member genes. Pathway activity is associated with patient survival in 21 of 34 cancer types, with the highest sampling consensus in BRCA. Among the 18 cancer types available for tumor–normal comparison, the pathway is differentially active in 11, with the highest sampling consensus in KIRC. Additionally, pathway RNA activity shows 36,418 significant cross-omics associations, again with the highest sampling consensus in STAD. Together, these results highlight BRCA, KIRC, and STAD as cancer lineages where the pathway shows reproducible signals across outcome, tissue activity, and molecular association analyses.

Every result is evaluated using two consensus scores. Sampling consensus measures how consistently a finding is reproduced within a cancer lineage across different conditions. Lineage consensus measures how broadly the result is shared across cancer types, distinguishing pan-cancer signals from lineage-specific patterns. Pathway-against-pathway and pathway-against-mutation comparisons are not available for ontology entities.

Survival associations

This table summarizes Positive regulation of cytoplasmic translational initiation survival associations by molecular data type. RNA-level pathway activity shows survival associations in the most cancer types (21). The rightmost column indicates the cancer type with the highest sampling consensus for each layer.

This table ranks reproducible pathway activity–survival associations across cancer types. High Positive regulation of cytoplasmic translational initiation activity shows favorable associations in BRCA, but unfavorable associations in KICH, UVM, ACC, COAD and KIRC. In the BRCA Kaplan–Meier curve the low-activity group declines faster, consistent with the favorable association (log-rank p < 0.001). BRCA ranks highest by sampling consensus for Positive regulation of cytoplasmic translational initiation.

This table ranks reproducible tumor–normal activity differences for the pathway. A positive fold-change indicates higher activity in tumor tissue. The pathway shows higher tumor activity across LIHC, COAD and BLCA and lower tumor activity in KIRC, BRCA and THCA. In the KIRC box plot, normal samples show higher pathway activity than tumor samples (log2 FC = −0.030, t-test p < 0.001).
