Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, TSKU RNA is linked to patient survival in 31 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated TSKU data layer compared with 8 for mutation status and 5 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), where higher TSKU RNA is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated TSKU expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UVM and DLBC show a favorable association.
KIRC, UVM, and ACC are the cancer types where TSKU 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.
