Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, RAB2A mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated RAB2A data layer compared with 25 for mass-spec protein and 6 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD), where higher RAB2A mass-spec protein is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated RAB2A expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as COAD and GBM show a favorable association.
COAD, CCRCC, and PDAC are the cancer types where RAB2A mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
