When comparing ROS1+ tumor versus cell line transcriptomes, an upregulation of MYC and MET was found in cell lines together with a significantly decreased expression of HER3, HER4 and BRAF. Within ROS1-tumors, GJB2 was overexpressed in the CD74- and CLTC-ROS1+ subgroups. The gene discussed is CD74; the disease is neoplasm.
