Elevated expression of mitochondrial transcription elongation factor (TEFM) predicts poor prognosis in low grade glioma-an analysis of the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) dataset.

Authors

Abstract

Mitochondrial transcription elongation factor (TEFM) is a key molecule for mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) replication-transcription switch. TEFM regulates both transcription elongation and RNA processing in mitochondria. However, the expression level and prognostic value of TEFM in low grade glioma (LGG) remain unclear. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to evaluate the clinical significance and the prognostic value of TEFM in LGG based on publicly available data.
