Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, C16orf78 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 3 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated C16orf78 data layer compared with 17 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC), where higher C16orf78 Mutation is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated C16orf78 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker.
LIHC, ESCA, and LUSC are the cancer types where C16orf78 Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
