Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, CLEC4D Mutation is linked to patient survival in 3 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated CLEC4D data layer compared with 17 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in skin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM), where higher CLEC4D Mutation is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated CLEC4D expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC show a favorable association.
SKCM, STAD, and UCEC are the cancer types where CLEC4D Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
