Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, ZNF652 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 7 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated ZNF652 data layer compared with 27 for mass-spec protein and 11 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), where higher ZNF652 mass-spec protein is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated ZNF652 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as HNSC and UCEC show a favorable association.
HNSC, UCEC, and LUAD are the cancer types where ZNF652 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
mass-spec protein 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.
