NEK2

Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, NEK2 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 2 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated NEK2 data layer compared with 26 for mass-spec protein.

The strongest signal is observed in uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC), where higher NEK2 Mutation is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated NEK2 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker.

UCEC and LUSC are the cancer types where NEK2 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.
