Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, KRTAP5-4 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 7 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of KRTAP5-4’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD), where KRTAP5-4 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types KRTAP5-4 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as KIRC show the opposite, repressed pattern.
COAD, KIRC, and READ are the cancer types where KRTAP5-4 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
RNA tumor vs normal associations by lineage
Ranked by sampling consensus. Fold-change is the tumor-versus-normal difference in KRTAP5-4 RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
