Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, AS3MT mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated AS3MT data layer compared with 26 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD), where higher AS3MT mass-spec protein is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated AS3MT expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as COAD and LSCC show a favorable association.
COAD, HNSC, and LSCC are the cancer types where AS3MT mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
