“…Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) [Krämer et al 2014] highlighted MYCN (V-myc avian myelocytomatosis viral oncogene neuroblastoma derived homolog) as an upstream regulator of 9 genes, EEF1A1, EEF1G, EEF2, EIF4G2, RPL29, RPL3, RPL37A, RPL41, and RPS24, in the cluster (p-value of overlap: 5.13E-13). MYCN is an oncogene implicated in many types of cancers, including neuroblastoma, non-small cell lung cancer, and prostate cancer [Boon et al 2001;Lee et al 2016;Ma et al 2015;Zhang et al 2016]. This transcript is highly expressed in testis (Human Protein Atlas (HPA): 5.1 transcripts per million (TPM), GTEx Portal: 3.1 RPKM; Figure 7) [Uhlén et al 2015], although the HPA classifies MYCN as a placentaenhanced transcript.…”
