Cohort function summary

| Symbol | Protein name | Function (lead sentence) |
|---|---|---|
| RIF1 | Telomere-associated protein RIF1 | Key regulator of TP53BP1 that plays a key role in the repair of double-strand DNA breaks (DSBs) in response to DNA damage: acts by promoting non-homologous end joining (NHEJ)-mediated repair of DSBs. |
| LRIF1 | Ligand-dependent nuclear receptor-interacting factor 1 | Together with SMCHD1, involved in chromosome X inactivation in females by promoting the compaction of heterochromatin. |
| NEB | Nebulin | This giant muscle protein may be involved in maintaining the structural integrity of sarcomeres and the membrane system associated with the myofibrils. |

Chemical tractability of cohort targets
1 approved/phased compounds have measured bioactivity against a cohort gene (and aren’t yet in disease-level trials). This is a research / tractability signal, NOT a therapeutic recommendation — a bioactivity row often reflects off-target or screening binding (e.g. promiscuous kinase inhibitors against a cohort kinase), implying no disease mechanism.
