SALL4 is an essential gene for survival of cancer cells. (a) Expression pattern of SALL4 across different cancer types. (b) The dependency score −0.13325 was calculating by getting average from dependency score of 789 different cell lines for SALL4 (the score determines the importance of the gene for survival of cancer cells and how its elimination is lethal for the cells). (c) Categorization of different cell types based on the tissue of origin shows that almost all cancer types have a negative dependency score for SALL4 meaning that they are vulnerable to omission of SALL4.
