Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, MCCD1 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 1 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated MCCD1 data layer compared with 18 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC), where higher MCCD1 mass-spec protein is associated with better overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated MCCD1 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as CCRCC show a favorable association.
CCRCC are the cancer types where MCCD1 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
