Cohort function summary
Lead sentence per gene, UniProt-curated.
| Symbol | Protein name | Function (lead sentence) |
|---|---|---|
| MYF6 | Myogenic factor 6 | Involved in muscle differentiation (myogenic factor). |
| RYR1 | Ryanodine receptor 1 | Cytosolic calcium-activated calcium channel that mediates the release of Ca(2+) from the sarcoplasmic reticulum into the cytosol and thereby plays a key role in triggering muscle contraction following depolarization of T-tubules. |
| MED12 | Mediator of RNA polymerase II transcription subunit 12 | Component of the Mediator complex, a coactivator involved in the regulated transcription of nearly all RNA polymerase II-dependent genes. |
| TPM3 | Tropomyosin alpha-3 chain | Binds to actin filaments in muscle and non-muscle cells. |
| TRIP4 | Activating signal cointegrator 1 | Transcription coactivator which associates with nuclear receptors, transcriptional coactivators including EP300, CREBBP and NCOA1, and basal transcription factors like TBP and TFIIA to facilitate nuclear receptors-mediated transcription. |
| TTN | Titin | Key component in the assembly and functioning of vertebrate striated muscles. |
| ACTA1 | Actin, alpha skeletal muscle | Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in various types of cell motility and are ubiquitously expressed in all eukaryotic cells. |
| CACNA1S | Voltage-dependent L-type calcium channel subunit alpha-1S | Pore-forming, alpha-1S subunit of the voltage-gated calcium channel that gives rise to L-type calcium currents in skeletal muscle. |
| CCDC78 | Coiled-coil domain-containing protein 78 | Component of the deuterosome, a structure that promotes de novo centriole amplification in multiciliated cells that can generate more than 100 centrioles. |
| MAP3K20 | Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 20 | Stress-activated component of a protein kinase signal transduction cascade that promotes programmed cell death in response to various stress, such as ribosomal stress, osmotic shock and ionizing radiation. |
| CFL2 | Cofilin-2 | Controls reversibly actin polymerization and depolymerization in a pH-sensitive manner. |
| CHRNA1 | Acetylcholine receptor subunit alpha | Upon acetylcholine binding, the AChR responds by an extensive change in conformation that affects all subunits and leads to opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane. |
| CHRND | Acetylcholine receptor subunit delta | After binding acetylcholine, the AChR responds by an extensive change in conformation that affects all subunits and leads to opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane. |
| ASCC1 | Activating signal cointegrator 1 complex subunit 1 | Plays a role in DNA damage repair as component of the ASCC complex. |
| DNM2 | Dynamin-2 | Catalyzes the hydrolysis of GTP and utilizes this energy to mediate vesicle scission at plasma membrane during endocytosis and filament remodeling at many actin structures during organization of the actin cytoskeleton. |
| FHL1 | Four and a half LIM domains protein 1 | May have an involvement in muscle development or hypertrophy. |
| FOXP3 | Forkhead box protein P3 | Transcriptional regulator which is crucial for the development and inhibitory function of regulatory T-cells (Treg). |
| MTM1 | Myotubularin | Lipid phosphatase which dephosphorylates phosphatidylinositol 3-monophosphate (PI3P) and phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate (PI(3,5)P2). |
| OPA1 | Dynamin-like GTPase OPA1, mitochondrial | Dynamin-related GTPase that is essential for normal mitochondrial morphology by mediating fusion of the mitochondrial inner membranes, regulating cristae morphology and maintaining respiratory chain function. |

Chemical tractability of cohort targets
30 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.
