DCAF15

Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, DCAF15 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated DCAF15 data layer compared with 27 for mass-spec protein and 4 for mass-spec protein.

The strongest signal is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), where higher DCAF15 Mutation is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated DCAF15 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC show a favorable association.

HNSC, PRAD, and SKCM are the cancer types where DCAF15 Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.

Mutation survival associations by lineage

Ranked by sampling consensus. AUC1 and AUC2 indicate survival in the high- and low-expression groups, respectively; the lower AUC marks the poorer-surviving group. p-values are from the log-rank test.
