Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, DEFB106B Mutation is linked to patient survival in 1 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated DEFB106B data layer compared with 7 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in skin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM), where higher DEFB106B Mutation is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated DEFB106B expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker.
SKCM are the cancer types where DEFB106B Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
