Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, MT-ATP6 RNA is linked to patient survival in 22 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated MT-ATP6 data layer compared with 3 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), where higher MT-ATP6 RNA is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated MT-ATP6 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as ACC and KIRP show a favorable association.
LUAD, SKCM, and ACC are the cancer types where MT-ATP6 RNA most reproducibly stratifies survival.
RNA 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.
