Gene name Protein name Number of samples with integration Chromosome Function Role in cancer
KLF12 Krueppel-like factor 12 15 13 Represses AP-2 alpha gene expression Regulates gene expression during vertebrate development and carcinogenesis
PVT1 PVT-1 oncogene 11 8 Long noncoding RNA locus identified as a candidate oncogene Implicated in breast and ovarian cancer, AML, and Hodgkin lymphoma
POU5F1B POU class 5 homeobox 1B 7 8 Homeobox 1 transcription factor Induces upregulation of growth factors and promote proliferation
RAD51B RAD51 paralog B 7 14 Homologous recombination repair pathway Overexpression causes cell cycle G1 delay and apoptosis
MYC c-Myc 7 8 Activates the transcription of growth-related genes Oncogene that regulates the cancer epigenome and transcriptome
TP63 Tumor protein 63 6 3 Member of the p53 family of transcription factors Isoforms involved in adult stem/progenitor cell regulation
ERBB2 Erb-b2 receptor tyrosine kinase 2 6 17 Binds to ligand-bound EGF receptor family members, stabilizes ligand binding, and enhances downstream signaling pathways Amplification and/or overexpression is reported in numerous cancers, including breast and ovarian tumors
