Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, PSMB3P2 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 4 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of PSMB3P2’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD), where PSMB3P2 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types PSMB3P2 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as KIRC show the opposite, repressed pattern.
COAD, ESCA, and KIRC are the cancer types where PSMB3P2 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
