The details of ninety-six candidate cuproptosis-related genes involved in the copper homeostasis regulatory pathway, copper metabolism diseases, mitochondrial respiratory, and iron-sulfur cluster proteins were exhibited in聽Table S1.
Cuproptosis genes related mitochondrial respiration
Given that cuproptosis is triggered by lipoylated TCA cycle proteins, the protein lipoylation-related genes (GCSH,聽LIAS,聽LIPT1,聽LIPT2,聽NDUFAB1, and聽NNAT) among the different risk groups were analyzed.
Derived from the genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 loss-of-function test reported in previous literature, 347 potential cuproptosis-related genes (FDR < 0.05) were identified, and for a detailed list of genes, see聽Supplementary Table S1.
