Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, WDFY1 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated WDFY1 data layer compared with 25 for mass-spec protein and 5 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD), where higher WDFY1 mass-spec protein is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated WDFY1 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LUAD and PDAC show a favorable association.
COAD, LSCC, and LUAD are the cancer types where WDFY1 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
