Based on these facts and by means of analyzing published sequencing data, we identified 8 membrane-related genes (FNBP1, PICK1, FGFR1, MSN, TIMP1, BAIAP2, EGF and FLNA) and used NMF algorithm to divide PCa patients in TCGA cohort into two subtypes based on these genes. This evidence concerns the gene BAIAP2 and posterior cortical atrophy.
