Uncharacterized Proteins CxORFx: Subinteractome Analysis and Prognostic Significance in Cancers.

ABSTRACT: Functions of about 10% of all the proteins and their associations with diseases are poorly annotated or not annotated at all. Among these proteins, there is a group of uncharacterized chromosome-specific open-reading frame genes (CxORFx) from the 'Tdark' category. The aim of the work was to reveal associations of CxORFx gene expression and ORF proteins' subinteractomes with cancer-driven cellular processes and molecular pathways. We performed systems biology and bioinformatic analysis of 219 differentially expressed CxORFx genes in cancers, an estimation of prognostic significance of novel transcriptomic signatures and analysis of subinteractome composition using several web servers (GEPIA2, KMplotter, ROC-plotter, TIMER, cBioPortal, DepMap, EnrichR, PepPSy, cProSite, WebGestalt, CancerGen
