RUNX1 dependency across cancer cell lines from the Cancer Dependency Map portal (depma.org). The Chronos dependency score is based on data from a cell depletion assay. A lower score indicates a higher probability that the gene (RUNX1) is essential for a given cell line. A score of 0 indicates a gene is not essential, − 1 is comparable to the median of all pan-essential genes. Note that a significant proportion of Lymphoid and particularly Myeloid cancer cell lines—but not other cancer types- require RUNX1 expression for survival, as suggested by a Chronos dependency score below − 0.5. Importantly, RUNX1 dependency across Lymphoid and Myeloid cancer cell lines is significantly correlated to the level of RUNX1 mRNA expression in each cell line (not shown)
