Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, TMEM207 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 4 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of TMEM207’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), where TMEM207 RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types TMEM207 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as KIRC and KIRP show the opposite, repressed pattern.
KIRC, KIRP, and KICH are the cancer types where TMEM207 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
