The data from GTEx data and TCGA normal tissues and cancer tissues revealed that UBE2I was markedly overexpressed in 13 types of cancer (BRCA, COAD, DLBC, GBM, HNSC, KIRC, KIRP, LGG, LIHC, PAAD, READ, STAD, TGCT and THYM) when compared with corresponding normal controls (Fig. 1a). The gene discussed is UBE2I; the disease is cancer.
