Kaplan Meier for New Gene Set

[Ashlyn Michelle]

I was wondering if it is possible to visualize Kaplan Meier plots fot a custom gene set/signature. I have 5 genes of interest within a pathway and am trying to combine their high/low expression data to see if the group is correlated with less survival. 

I can make a column for each individual gene and see the KM plot, but when I list all of the genes, separated with a comma, the KM plot is greyed out. Any adivce?

Hi Ashlyn,

I recommend creating a signature for your set of genes (https://ucsc-xena.gitbook.io/project/overview-of-features/genomic-signatures) and then running the Kaplan Meier plot on that column. 

Let me know if you have any questions.

Best,

Mary
