Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, SLC35B2 mass-spec protein differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 7 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of SLC35B2’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD), where SLC35B2 mass-spec protein is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types SLC35B2 is over-expressed in tumor.
COAD, LUAD, and LSCC are the cancer types where SLC35B2 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
mass-spec protein tumor vs normal associations by lineage
Ranked by sampling consensus. Fold-change is the tumor-versus-normal difference in SLC35B2 mass-spec protein (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
