  1. a” Sample size for each cancer type: bladder (N = 286), breast (N = 734), cervical (N = 133), lung adenocarcinoma (N = 363), lung squamous carcinoma (N = 85), head and neck (N = 323), stomach (N = 66), pancreas (N = 90), thyroid (N = 333), kidney (N = 143). “b” and “c” refers to lung adenocarcinoma and lung squamous carcinoma, respectively. A univariate regression analysis was constructed to include APOBEC-mutational signature as dependent variables and expression levels as the independent variable for each isoform of each cancer type. The significance level at P = 0.005, corresponding to a threshold with a Bonferroni-correction of P = 0.05, given 10 tests
