GALE

Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, GALE Mutation is linked to patient survival in 3 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated GALE data layer compared with 28 for mass-spec protein and 5 for mass-spec protein.

The strongest signal is observed in stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD), where higher GALE Mutation is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated GALE expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC show a favorable association.

STAD, UCEC, and PRAD are the cancer types where GALE 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.
