Cohort function summary
Lead sentence per gene, UniProt-curated.
| Symbol | Protein name | Function (lead sentence) |
|---|---|---|
| CPOX | Oxygen-dependent coproporphyrinogen-III oxidase, mitochondrial | Catalyzes the aerobic oxidative decarboxylation of propionate groups of rings A and B of coproporphyrinogen-III to yield the vinyl groups in protoporphyrinogen-IX and participates to the sixth step in the heme biosynthetic pathway. |
| NDC1 | Nucleoporin NDC1 | Component of the nuclear pore complex (NPC), which plays a key role in de novo assembly and insertion of NPC in the nuclear envelope. |
| GLA | Alpha-galactosidase A | Catalyzes the hydrolysis of glycosphingolipids and participates in their degradation in the lysosome. |
| ABCB6 | ATP-binding cassette sub-family B member 6 | ATP-dependent transporter that catalyzes the transport of a broad-spectrum of porphyrins from the cytoplasm to the extracellular space through the plasma membrane or into the vesicle lumen. |

Pharmacogenomics
Cohort genes with a PharmGKB record: 4; with CPIC/DPWG dosing guidelines: 0.
No cohort gene has a CPIC/DPWG genotype-guided dosing guideline (PharmGKB).
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.
