Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, SYNJ2BP mass-spec protein differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 5 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of SYNJ2BP’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC), where SYNJ2BP mass-spec protein is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types SYNJ2BP is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as CCRCC and LSCC show the opposite, repressed pattern.
CCRCC, HNSC, and LSCC are the cancer types where SYNJ2BP tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
