Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, NUDT16 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 6 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated NUDT16 data layer compared with 24 for mass-spec protein and 4 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), where higher NUDT16 mass-spec protein is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated NUDT16 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as PDAC and CCRCC show a favorable association.
PDAC, CCRCC, and LUAD are the cancer types where NUDT16 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
