Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, MRPL40 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 6 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated MRPL40 data layer compared with 26 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD), where higher MRPL40 mass-spec protein is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated MRPL40 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as COAD and PDAC show a favorable association.
COAD, PDAC, and CCRCC are the cancer types where MRPL40 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
mass-spec protein 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.
