Cohort function summary
Lead sentence per gene, UniProt-curated.
| Symbol | Protein name | Function (lead sentence) |
|---|---|---|
| TNNT2 | Troponin T, cardiac muscle | Troponin T is the tropomyosin-binding subunit of troponin, the thin filament regulatory complex which confers calcium-sensitivity to striated muscle actomyosin ATPase activity. |
| TTN | Titin | Key component in the assembly and functioning of vertebrate striated muscles. |
| VCL | Vinculin | Actin filament (F-actin)-binding protein involved in cell-matrix adhesion and cell-cell adhesion. |
| JPH2 | Junctophilin-2 | Membrane-binding protein that provides a structural bridge between the plasma membrane and the sarcoplasmic reticulum and is required for normal excitation-contraction coupling in cardiomyocytes. |
| ACTC1 | Actin, alpha cardiac muscle 1 | Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in various types of cell motility and are ubiquitously expressed in all eukaryotic cells. |
| LDB3 | LIM domain-binding protein 3 | May function as an adapter in striated muscle to couple protein kinase C-mediated signaling via its LIM domains to the cytoskeleton. |
| ANKRD1 | Ankyrin repeat domain-containing protein 1 | May play an important role in endothelial cell activation. |
| NEBL | Nebulette | Binds to actin and plays an important role in the assembly of the Z-disk. |
| MYPN | Myopalladin | Component of the sarcomere that tethers together nebulin (skeletal muscle) and nebulette (cardiac muscle) to alpha-actinin, at the Z lines. |
| NEXN | Nexilin | Involved in regulating cell migration through association with the actin cytoskeleton. |
| GATAD1 | GATA zinc finger domain-containing protein 1 | Component of some chromatin complex recruited to chromatin sites methylated ‘Lys-4’ of histone H3 (H3K4me), with a preference for trimethylated form (H3K4me3). |
| DSP | Desmoplakin | A component of desmosome cell-cell junctions which are required for positive regulation of cellular adhesion. |
| ABCC9 | ATP-binding cassette sub-family C member 9 | Subunit of ATP-sensitive potassium channels (KATP). |
| LMNA | Prelamin-A/C | Lamins are intermediate filament proteins that assemble into a filamentous meshwork, and which constitute the major components of the nuclear lamina, a fibrous layer on the nucleoplasmic side of the inner nuclear membrane. |
| MYH6 | Myosin-6 | Muscle contraction. |
| MYH7 | Myosin-7 | Myosins are actin-based motor molecules with ATPase activity essential for muscle contraction. |

Pathway analysis
Distinct Reactome pathways touched by cohort: 60. Enrichment computed across 17 evidence-associated genes (9 with Reactome annotation).
Pathways by enrichment
Over-representation of cohort genes vs the genome-wide background (hypergeometric test, Benjamini-Hochberg FDR; fold = observed/expected over 9 annotated cohort genes). Counts and members are kept as ground-truth; sorted by enrichment.

Pharmacogenomics
Cohort genes with a PharmGKB record: 16; 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.
