Cohort function summary
Lead sentence per gene, UniProt-curated.
| Symbol | Protein name | Function (lead sentence) |
|---|---|---|
| SOX9 | Transcription factor SOX-9 | Transcription factor that plays a key role in chondrocytes differentiation and skeletal development. |
| SNRPB | Small nuclear ribonucleoprotein-associated proteins B and B' | Plays a role in pre-mRNA splicing as a core component of the spliceosomal U1, U2, U4 and U5 small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs), the building blocks of the spliceosome. |
| ASB4 | Ankyrin repeat and SOCS box protein 4 | Probable substrate-recognition component of a SCF-like ECS (Elongin-Cullin-SOCS-box protein) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex which mediates the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins. |
| EBF3 | Transcription factor COE3 | Transcriptional activator. |
| CYBRD1 | Plasma membrane ascorbate-dependent reductase CYBRD1 | Plasma membrane reductase that uses cytoplasmic ascorbate as an electron donor to reduce extracellular Fe(3+) into Fe(2+). |
| MED13L | Mediator of RNA polymerase II transcription subunit 13-like | Component of the Mediator complex, a coactivator involved in the regulated transcription of nearly all RNA polymerase II-dependent genes. |
| GPS2 | G protein pathway suppressor 2 | Key regulator of inflammation, lipid metabolism and mitochondrion homeostasis that acts by inhibiting the activity of the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme UBE2N/Ubc13, thereby inhibiting ‘Lys-63’-linked ubiquitination. |
| ATP2B1 | Plasma membrane calcium-transporting ATPase 1 | Catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP coupled with the transport of calcium from the cytoplasm to the extracellular space thereby maintaining intracellular calcium homeostasis. |

Approved (phase 4): 0 · Phase ≥3: 0 · Phased (≥1): 0 · Undrugged: 8
Druggability breadth: 2 of 8 evidence-associated genes (25%) have a ChEMBL target (buckets above are over the deeply-mined display cohort).

Cohort genes with ChEMBL bioactivity (full, sorted by assay count)
| Symbol | Assays | Type breakdown |
|---|---|---|
| SNRPB | 6 | Binding:6 |
| SOX9 | 3 | Binding:3 |
Cohort enzymes (BRENDA EC)
| Symbol | EC numbers | Names |
|---|---|---|
| CYBRD1 | 7.2.1.3 | ascorbate ferrireductase (transmembrane) |
| ATP2B1 | 7.2.2.10 | P-type Ca2+ transporter |
Pharmacogenomics
Cohort genes with a PharmGKB record: 8; with CPIC/DPWG dosing guidelines: 0.
No cohort gene has a CPIC/DPWG genotype-guided dosing guideline (PharmGKB).
Chemical tractability of cohort targets
0 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.
Druggability pyramid
Cohort genes binned by druggability tier (high → low):
| Tier | Definition | Genes | Symbols |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | Approved (phase 4 drug) | 0 | |
| B | Phased (≥1) drug, not yet approved | 0 | |
| C | Druggable family + PDB, no drug | 1 | CYBRD1 |
| D | Druggable family + AlphaFold only, no drug | 0 | |
| E | Difficult family or no structure, no drug | 7 | SOX9, SNRPB, ASB4, EBF3, MED13L, GPS2, ATP2B1 |
Undrugged target profiles
8 cohort genes are undrugged. Ranked by ‘starting-point quality’ (assay depth + drugged-partner adjacency).
