EIF5B

Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, EIF5B mass-spec protein differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 7 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of EIF5B’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.

The strongest signal is observed in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD), where EIF5B mass-spec protein is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types EIF5B is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as PDAC show the opposite, repressed pattern.

COAD, HNSC, and CCRCC are the cancer types where EIF5B tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.

mass-spec protein tumor vs normal associations by lineage

Ranked by sampling consensus. Fold-change is the tumor-versus-normal difference in EIF5B mass-spec protein (log₂); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
