Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, MRPS15 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated MRPS15 data layer compared with 22 for mass-spec protein and 4 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), where higher MRPS15 mass-spec protein is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated MRPS15 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LSCC and LUAD show a favorable association.
LSCC, LUAD, and HNSC are the cancer types where MRPS15 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
