Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, RPUSD4 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated RPUSD4 data layer compared with 27 for mass-spec protein and 5 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), where higher RPUSD4 mass-spec protein is associated with better overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated RPUSD4 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LSCC and PDAC show a favorable association.
LSCC, PDAC, and LUAD are the cancer types where RPUSD4 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
