Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, KCNJ6 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 3 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated KCNJ6 data layer compared with 27 for mass-spec protein and 1 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in rectum adenocarcinoma (READ), where higher KCNJ6 Mutation is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated KCNJ6 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC and SKCM show a favorable association.
READ, UCEC, and SKCM are the cancer types where KCNJ6 Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
