Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, KRTCAP2 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated KRTCAP2 data layer compared with 26 for mass-spec protein and 3 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC), where higher KRTCAP2 mass-spec protein is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated KRTCAP2 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LUAD show a favorable association.
CCRCC, LUAD, and PDAC are the cancer types where KRTCAP2 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
