KLF6

Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, KLF6 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated KLF6 data layer compared with 26 for mass-spec protein and 2 for mass-spec protein.

The strongest signal is observed in rectum adenocarcinoma (READ), where higher KLF6 Mutation is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated KLF6 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC show a favorable association.

READ, OV, and STAD are the cancer types where KLF6 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.
