Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, OR51A9P RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 3 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of OR51A9P’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), where OR51A9P RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types OR51A9P is over-expressed in tumor.
KIRC, PRAD, and BRCA are the cancer types where OR51A9P tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
