Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, TEKT3 RNA is linked to patient survival in 28 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated TEKT3 data layer compared with 4 for mutation status and 3 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in uveal melanoma (UVM), where higher TEKT3 RNA is associated with better overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated TEKT3 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UVM and UCS show a favorable association.
UVM, ACC, and THCA are the cancer types where TEKT3 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.
