To this end, we performed in silico analysis of 380 primary colorectal tumour tissues retrieved from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and found that NAA40 transcript levels in these patients are positively correlated (r = 0.30, p < 0.001) with the expression of TYMS (Fig. 5H), consistent with the above-described regulatory link within CRC cells. The gene discussed is TYMS; the disease is colorectal carcinoma.
