Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, EIF2B4 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 3 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated EIF2B4 data layer compared with 25 for mass-spec protein and 5 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD), where higher EIF2B4 mass-spec protein is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated EIF2B4 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as COAD show a favorable association.
COAD, GBM, and HNSC are the cancer types where EIF2B4 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
