Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, RNU6-1275P RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 3 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of RNU6-1275P’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in breast invasive carcinoma (BRCA), where RNU6-1275P RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types RNU6-1275P is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as BRCA and STAD show the opposite, repressed pattern.
BRCA, STAD, and HNSC are the cancer types where RNU6-1275P tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
