UBA1 and cancer: In this study, five proteins (CCT3, PCMT1, TKT, TOMM34, UBA1) showed the significantly different protein levels (t-test: p value ≤ 0.05, AUC ≥ 0.7) between control and cancer groups and the result of multiplex assay using logistic regression showed the 5-marker panel showed better sensitivity (0.80 and 0.90), specificity (0.92 and 1.00), error rate (10 and 2%), and AUC value (0.94 and 0.98) than the best single marker (TOMM34) in primary cells and tissues, respectively.
