We have downloaded the STAR-processed RNA sequencing level 1 data of 671 samples (colorectal tumors: n = 615, metastases: n = 11, unpaired samples from normal tissue: n = 45) from the Cancer Genome Atlas Consortium Portal and used them to extract transcripts per kilobase million (TPM) counts for POU5F1 (Ensemble ID ENSG00000204531.20). This evidence concerns the gene POU5F1 and colorectal neoplasm.
