The deoxynucleotidyl transferase terminal interacting protein 1 (DNTTIP1) was reported to promote multiple tumor progression. However, there is no research about DNTTIP1 in ccRCC.Methods: Kaplan–Meier survival analysis, multivariate analysis demonstrated the prognostic indicator in overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) of ccRCC with DNTTIP1 expression in the Cancer Genome Atlas Kidney Clear Cell Carcinoma (TCGA-KIRC). Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve analyzed diagnostic ability of DNTTIP1 in TCGA-KIRC and validation dataset. The quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) detected the DNTTIP1 expression in renal cancer tissues, and the Office of Cancer Clinical Proteomics Research (CPTAC) verified the protein expression of DNTTIP1. Moreover, nomogram predicted the role of DNTTIP1 in ccRCC patient. Single-sample Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (SsGSEA) and GSEA evaluated the pathogenesis role of DNTTIP1 in TCGA-KIRC.Results: DNTTIP1 expression was higher in ccRCC tumor tissues. High expression of DNTTIP1 was associated with poor OS (HR = 1.618, P < 0.0001), and poor DFS (HR = 1.789, P < 0.0001). SsGSEA and GSEA showed DNTTIP1 was associated with hypoxia, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), angiogenesis, G2M checkpoint. DNTTIP1 had a positive correlation with EMT biomarkers in ccRCC, and might be an effective target for ccRCC.Conclusion: This study provided that higher expression of DNTTIP1 predicted poor prognosis in ccRCC, and DNTTIP1 might be a novel detection biomarker and therapeutic target of tumor malignant in the future.Keywords: DNTTIP1, ccRCC, gene therapy, prognostic indicator
