Identification of immune-system-related metagenes. (a) To identify metagenes for the principal expression vectors we selected those gene clusters that encompassed at least 10 elements and displayed a minimal average correlation of 0.7 from the larger data matrix of 569 ProbeSets (see Additional data file 3). Expression of these selected 199 ProbeSets among the 1,230 breast cancer samples is shown. HCK, hemopoietic cell kinase; LCK, lymphocyte-specific kinase; MHC, major histocompatibility complex; STAT1, signal transducer and activator of transcription 1. (b) Seven metagenes were derived as mean values of all 199 ProbeSets from the seven clusters.
