Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, LRRC38 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated LRRC38 data layer compared with 23 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in rectum adenocarcinoma (READ), where higher LRRC38 Mutation is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated LRRC38 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as COAD show a favorable association.
READ, ESCA, and LIHC are the cancer types where LRRC38 Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
Mutation survival associations by lineage
Ranked by sampling consensus. AUC1 and AUC2 indicate survival in the high- and low-expression groups, respectively; the lower AUC marks the poorer-surviving group. p-values are from the log-rank test.
