Relationships between human essential genes and cancer. (A) Proportions of human essential genes in five cancer gene lists and in all human genes. ***P < 0.0001, Fisher exact test. (B) Differential expression of genes in normal and tumor tissues from the TCGA database. Each colored line represents a mean differential expression fold change (among all donors, from normal to cancerous for each donor) by tumor type.
