Cohort function summary
Lead sentence per gene, UniProt-curated.
| Symbol | Protein name | Function (lead sentence) |
|---|
| TOM1 | Target of Myb1 membrane trafficking protein | Adapter protein that plays a role in the intracellular membrane trafficking of ubiquitinated proteins, thereby participating in autophagy, ubiquitination-dependent signaling and receptor recycling pathways. |
| CBX7 | Chromobox protein homolog 7 | Component of a Polycomb group (PcG) multiprotein PRC1-like complex, a complex class required to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of many genes, including Hox genes, throughout development. |
| ULK4 | Serine/threonine-protein kinase ULK4 | May be involved in the remodeling of cytoskeletal components, such as alpha-tubulin, and in this way regulates neurite branching and elongation, as well as cell motility. |
| ELL2 | RNA polymerase II elongation factor ELL2 | Elongation factor component of the super elongation complex (SEC), a complex required to increase the catalytic rate of RNA polymerase II transcription by suppressing transient pausing by the polymerase at multiple sites along the DNA. |
| RIMS2 | Regulating synaptic membrane exocytosis protein 2 | Rab effector involved in exocytosis. |
| TNFRSF13B | Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 13B | Receptor for TNFSF13/APRIL and TNFSF13B/TALL1/BAFF/BLYS that binds both ligands with similar high affinity. |
| SFMBT2 | Scm-like with four MBT domains protein 2 | Transcriptional repressor of HOXB13 gene. |
| ASXL2 | Putative Polycomb group protein ASXL2 | Putative Polycomb group (PcG) protein. |
| CSNK1G1 | Casein kinase I isoform gamma-1 | Serine/threonine-protein kinase. |
| SGMS2 | Phosphatidylcholine:ceramide cholinephosphotransferase 2 | Sphingomyelin synthase that primarily contributes to sphingomyelin synthesis and homeostasis at the plasma membrane. |
| LRRC34 | Leucine-rich repeat-containing protein 34 | Highly expressed in stem cells where it may be involved in regulation of pluripotency. |
| DNAH11 | Dynein axonemal heavy chain 11 | Force generating protein required for cilia beating in respiratory epithelia. |
| DTNB | Dystrobrevin beta | Scaffolding protein that assembles DMD and SNTA1 molecules to the basal membrane of kidney cells and liver sinusoids. |
| CDCA7L | Cell division cycle-associated 7-like protein | Plays a role in transcriptional regulation as a repressor that inhibits monoamine oxidase A (MAOA) activity and gene expression by binding to the promoter. |
| PROX1 | Prospero homeobox protein 1 | Transcription factor involved in developmental processes such as cell fate determination, gene transcriptional regulation and progenitor cell regulation in a number of organs. |
| RAD51B | DNA repair protein RAD51 homolog 2 | Involved in the homologous recombination repair (HRR) pathway of double-stranded DNA breaks arising during DNA replication or induced by DNA-damaging agents. |

Pharmacogenomics
Cohort genes with a PharmGKB record: 19; with CPIC/DPWG dosing guidelines: 0.
No cohort gene has a CPIC/DPWG genotype-guided dosing guideline (PharmGKB).
Chemical tractability of cohort targets
23 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.
