| Symbol | Protein name | Function (lead sentence) |
|---|---|---|
| STIM1 | Stromal interaction molecule 1 | Acts as a Ca(2+) sensor that gates two major inward rectifying Ca(2+) channels at the plasma membrane: Ca(2+) release-activated Ca(2+) (CRAC) channels and arachidonate-regulated Ca(2+)-selective (ARC) channels. |
| ORAI1 | Calcium release-activated calcium channel protein 1 | Pore-forming subunit of two major inward rectifying Ca(2+) channels at the plasma membrane: Ca(2+) release-activated Ca(2+) (CRAC) channels and arachidonate-regulated Ca(2+)-selective (ARC) channels. |
| PGAP2 | Acyltransferase PGAP2 | Involved in the fatty acid remodeling steps of GPI-anchor maturation where the unsaturated acyl chain at sn-2 of inositol phosphate is replaced by a saturated stearoyl chain. |

No cohort gene has a CPIC/DPWG genotype-guided dosing guideline (PharmGKB).
Chemical tractability of cohort targets
5 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.
