Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, SRSF5 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated SRSF5 data layer compared with 21 for mass-spec protein and 3 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), where higher SRSF5 mass-spec protein is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated SRSF5 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as HNSC and LSCC show a favorable association.
HNSC, OV, and LSCC are the cancer types where SRSF5 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
