Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, TRAK2 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated TRAK2 data layer compared with 26 for mass-spec protein and 4 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC), where higher TRAK2 mass-spec protein is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated TRAK2 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LUAD and PDAC show a favorable association.
CCRCC, LUAD, and PDAC are the cancer types where TRAK2 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
