A New RBPs-Related Signature Predicts the Prognosis of Colon Adenocarcinoma Patients.

ABSTRACT: The dysregulation of RNA binding proteins (RBPs) is closely related to tumorigenesis and development. However, the role of RBPs in Colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) is still poorly understood. We downloaded COAD's RNASeq data from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, screened the differently expressed RBPs in normal tissues and tumor, and constructed a protein interaction network. COAD patients were randomly divided into a training set (N = 315) and a testing set (N = 132). In the training set, univariate Cox analysis identified 12 RBPs significantly related to the prognosis of COAD. By multivariate COX analysis, we constructed a prognostic model composed of five RBPs (CELF4, LRRFIP2, NOP14, PPARGC1A, ZNF385A) based on the lowest Akaike information criterion. Each COAD patient was scored acc
