Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, MYO5C mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated MYO5C data layer compared with 27 for mass-spec protein and 7 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), where higher MYO5C mass-spec protein is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated MYO5C expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as PDAC and CCRCC show a favorable association.
PDAC, HNSC, and CCRCC are the cancer types where MYO5C mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
