Integrative pan-cancer landscape of MMS22L and its potential role in hepatocellular carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Methyl methanesulfonate-sensitivity protein 22-like (MMS22L) is crucial in protecting genome integrity during DNA replication by preventing DNA damage and maintaining efficient homologous recombination. However, the role of MMS22L in human cancers remains unclear. Here, we reported the landscape of MMS22L using multi-omics data and identified the relationship between the MMS22L status and pan-cancer prognosis. In addition, the correlation of MMS22L mRNA expression levels with tumor mutational burden, microsatellite instability, homologous recombination deficiency, and loss of heterozygosity in pan-cancer was also described in this study. Furthermore, this study was the first to characterize the relationship between mRNA expression of MMS22L and immune cell infiltration in the tumor microen
