As expected, a sub-set of the short, de-novo-discovered patient-derived motifs were similar to binding sites of cancer-relevant regulators including ETS1, ELK1, FOS, JUN, and MAX (DNA elements) and HNRNPLL, RBM6, ELAVL1, miRNA-106, miRNA-525, and miRNA-329 (linear RNA elements) (TOMTOM43q <0.01; STAR Methods). This evidence concerns the gene ELAVL1 and cancer.
