Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, ZC3H12A mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated ZC3H12A data layer compared with 29 for mass-spec protein and 6 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC), where higher ZC3H12A mass-spec protein is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated ZC3H12A expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as PDAC and UCEC show a favorable association.
CCRCC, PDAC, and UCEC are the cancer types where ZC3H12A mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
