Table_1_Comprehensive Analysis Reveals the Potential Regulatory Mechanism Between Ub–Proteasome System and Cell Cycle in Colorectal Cancer.XLSX

The ubiquitin (Ub)–proteasome system (UPS) is an important regulatory component in colorectal cancer (CRC), and the cell cycle is also characterized to play a significant role in CRC. In this present study, we firstly identified UPS-associated differentially expressed genes and all the differentially expressed protein-coding genes in CRC through three differential analyses. UPS-associated genes were also further analyzed via survival analysis. A weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was used to identify the cell cycle-associated genes. We used protein–protein interaction (PPI) network to comprehensively mine the potential mechanism of the UPS–cell cycle regulatory axis. Moreover, we constructed a signature based on UPS-associated genes to predict the overall survival of CRC patients. Our research provides a novel insight view of the UPS and cell cycle system in CRC.
