Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, BCS1L Mutation is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated BCS1L data layer compared with 27 for mass-spec protein and 4 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC), where higher BCS1L Mutation is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated BCS1L expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as SKCM show a favorable association.
LUSC, UCEC, and PRAD are the cancer types where BCS1L Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
