Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, FANK1 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 2 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated FANK1 data layer compared with 26 for mass-spec protein and 3 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), where higher FANK1 mass-spec protein is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated FANK1 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LUAD show a favorable association.
LSCC and LUAD are the cancer types where FANK1 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
