Chromatin accessibility associates with protein-RNA correlation in human cancer

Studies show the cancer transcriptome correlates poorly with the cancer proteome, questioning the role of chromatin regulation. Here the authors demonstrate proximal-gene-body chromatin elements and transcription predict abundances of differentially expressed proteins in thyroid and breast cancers.
