Abstract

Cuproptosis is a newly defined programmed cell death pattern and is believed to play an important role in tumorigenesis and progression. In addition, many studies have shown that glycosylation modification is of vital importance in tumor progression. However, it remains unclear whether glycosyltransferases, the most critical enzymes involved in glycosylation modification, are associated with cuproptosis. In this study, we used bioinformatic methods to construct a signature of cuproptosis-related glycosyltransferases to predict the prognosis of colon adenocarcinoma patients. We found that cuproptosis was highly correlated with four glycosyltransferases in COAD, and our model predicted the prognosis of COAD patients. Further analysis of related functions revealed the possibility that cuproptosis-related glycosyltransferase Exostosin-like 2 (EXTL2) participated in tumor immunity.
