Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, DNAJB12 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated DNAJB12 data layer compared with 24 for mass-spec protein and 5 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), where higher DNAJB12 mass-spec protein is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated DNAJB12 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as HNSC and PDAC show a favorable association.
HNSC, LUAD, and CCRCC are the cancer types where DNAJB12 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
