Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, PHKG1P3 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 2 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of PHKG1P3’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal papillary cell carcinoma (KIRP), where PHKG1P3 RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types PHKG1P3 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as KIRP and THCA show the opposite, repressed pattern.
KIRP and THCA are the cancer types where PHKG1P3 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
