FUCA2

Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, FUCA2 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated FUCA2 data layer compared with 30 for mass-spec protein and 4 for mass-spec protein.

The strongest signal is observed in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC), where higher FUCA2 Mutation is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated FUCA2 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC show a favorable association.

LUSC, BLCA, and COAD are the cancer types where FUCA2 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.
