Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, NDUFB2P1 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 1 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of NDUFB2P1’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in thyroid carcinoma (THCA), where NDUFB2P1 RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types NDUFB2P1 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as THCA show the opposite, repressed pattern.
THCA are the cancer types where NDUFB2P1 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
