Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, CES5A Mutation is linked to patient survival in 9 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated CES5A data layer compared with 26 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma (OV), where higher CES5A Mutation is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated CES5A expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker.
OV, LUSC, and HNSC are the cancer types where CES5A 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.
