Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, BBS5 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 1 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated BBS5 data layer compared with 25 for mass-spec protein and 9 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), where higher BBS5 mass-spec protein is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated BBS5 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker.
GBM are the cancer types where BBS5 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
