Definition of eligible genes. a Distribution of the 90th quantile of expression values for all genes in the TCGA data. The distribution is bimodal, and we excluded genes below the cutoff of 5 (dashed red line) because most samples have low/no expression for these genes. b Number of eligible genes (y-axis) by the correlation threshold (x-axis) when the minimum number of genes to which an eligible gene must be correlated is set to 1. Highlighted in red are specific values when the correlation threshold is set to 0.60, 0.65, and 0.70. c Same as B but with the minimum number of genes to which an eligible gene must be correlated is set to 2. d Same as B but with the minimum number of genes to which an eligible gene must be correlated is set to 3
