Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, MEP1B Mutation is linked to patient survival in 3 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated MEP1B data layer compared with 19 for mass-spec protein and 1 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in esophageal carcinoma (ESCA), where higher MEP1B Mutation is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated MEP1B expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC show a favorable association.
ESCA, STAD, and UCEC are the cancer types where MEP1B Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
