Q-omics provides the consensus-scored MRPL38 profile across patient tissues and cancer cell-line models. MRPL38 expression is associated with patient survival in 21 of 34 cancer types, with the highest sampling consensus in ACC. Among the 18 cancer types available for tumor–normal comparison, MRPL38 is differentially expressed in 11, with the highest sampling consensus in COAD. Additionally, MRPL38 protein abundance shows 19,365 significant protein co-abundance associations, with the highest sampling consensus in LSCC. Together, these results highlight ACC, COAD, and LSCC as cancer lineages where MRPL38 shows reproducible signals across survival, tumor–normal expression, and patient cross-omics analyses.
Every result is evaluated using two consensus scores. Sampling consensus measures how consistently a finding is reproduced within a cancer lineage across different conditions. Lineage consensus measures how broadly the result is shared across cancer types, distinguishing pan-cancer signals from lineage-specific patterns.

This table summarizes MRPL38 survival associations across molecular data types. MRPL38 RNA expression shows survival associations in the most cancer types (21), followed by mutation status (3) and mass-spec protein abundance (5). The rightmost column indicates the cancer type with the highest sampling consensus for each molecular layer.
This table ranks reproducible MRPL38 RNA expression–survival associations across cancer types. High MRPL38 expression shows unfavorable associations in ACC, KIRC, KIRP, PRAD and CESC, but favorable associations in PAAD. The ACC Kaplan–Meier curve shows clear separation, with the high-expression group declining faster, consistent with the unfavorable association (log-rank p < 0.001). Together, the overview and detailed table identify ACC as the clearest survival context for MRPL38 RNA expression.
This table summarizes MRPL38 tumor–normal expression differences by data type. RNA shows broader differences across cancer types, with a lineage consensus of 11, while mass-spec protein shows differences in 6. The strongest signals are observed in COAD for RNA and CCRCC for protein.
This table ranks reproducible tumor–normal expression differences for MRPL38. A negative fold-change indicates higher expression in normal tissue than in tumor tissue. MRPL38 shows higher tumor expression in COAD, BLCA, LIHC, HNSC, STAD and KIRP. The COAD box plot shows higher MRPL38 RNA expression in tumor versus normal tissue (log2 FC = +0.785, t-test p < 0.001).
This table shows molecular features associated with MRPL38 in patient tissues and cancer cell lines. In patient samples, MRPL38 shows the broadest associations at the RNA and protein expression levels, with LSCC recurring as the lineage with the largest associated feature set. In cancer cell lines, MRPL38 RNA and mutation anchors are most strongly linked to RNA-expression features, especially in CNS, while CRISPR and shRNA rows add functional-dependency signals in BONE and UPPER_AERODIGESTIVE_TRACT.
