MAFG and cancer: Using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases of RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) data, we found that MAFG expression was negatively correlated with BRCA and SKCM (Fig. 7E and Fig. S8A) patient survival, which also had a positive correlation with the stemness score of the tumors (Fig. 7F).
