Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, RARS2 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated RARS2 data layer compared with 26 for mass-spec protein and 6 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal papillary cell carcinoma (KIRP), where higher RARS2 Mutation is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated RARS2 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC show a favorable association.
KIRP, UCEC, and SARC are the cancer types where RARS2 Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
