To confirm the exact downstream target gene of ATMIN, we examined the correlations between the mRNA levels of ATMIN and these ten candidate genes in 113 NPC patients from the GSE102349 dataset, and found that the expression of LCK and FKBP1A, had prominent correlations with ATMIN expression (Supplementary Fig. S2). Here, FKBP1A is linked to nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
