Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, DCAF6 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 6 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated DCAF6 data layer compared with 24 for mass-spec protein and 8 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC), where higher DCAF6 mass-spec protein is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated DCAF6 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC and HNSC show a favorable association.
CCRCC, UCEC, and LSCC are the cancer types where DCAF6 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
mass-spec protein 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.
