Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, BUD23 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated BUD23 data layer compared with 24 for mass-spec protein and 5 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), where higher BUD23 Mutation is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated BUD23 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker.
HNSC, SARC, and SKCM are the cancer types where BUD23 Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
