TECR

Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, TECR RNA is linked to patient survival in 25 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated TECR data layer compared with 3 for mutation status and 4 for mass-spec protein.

The strongest signal is observed in bladder urothelial carcinoma (BLCA), where higher TECR RNA is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated TECR expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LUSC and THYM show a favorable association.

BLCA, OV, and LIHC are the cancer types where TECR 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.
