Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, MTND5P26 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 1 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of MTND5P26’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney chromophobe (KICH), where MTND5P26 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types MTND5P26 is over-expressed in tumor.
KICH are the cancer types where MTND5P26 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
