Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, TMEM201 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated TMEM201 data layer compared with 25 for mass-spec protein and 4 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), where higher TMEM201 mass-spec protein is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated TMEM201 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as PDAC and GBM show a favorable association.
HNSC, PDAC, and GBM are the cancer types where TMEM201 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
