Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, PGBD5 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 3 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated PGBD5 data layer compared with 25 for mass-spec protein and 6 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), where higher PGBD5 mass-spec protein is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated PGBD5 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LSCC and GBM show a favorable association.
LSCC, CCRCC, and GBM are the cancer types where PGBD5 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
