GSTM5

Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, GSTM5 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated GSTM5 data layer compared with 23 for mass-spec protein and 5 for mass-spec protein.

The strongest signal is observed in sarcoma (SARC), where higher GSTM5 Mutation is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated GSTM5 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as SKCM show a favorable association.

SARC, LUSC, and LIHC are the cancer types where GSTM5 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.
