Cohort function summary
Lead sentence per gene, UniProt-curated.
| Symbol | Protein name | Function (lead sentence) |
|---|---|---|
| RYR2 | Ryanodine receptor 2 | Cytosolic calcium-activated calcium channel that mediates the release of Ca(2+) from the sarcoplasmic reticulum into the cytosol and thereby plays a key role in triggering cardiac muscle contraction. |
| SCN5A | Sodium channel protein type 5 subunit alpha | Pore-forming subunit of Nav1.5, a voltage-gated sodium (Nav) channel that directly mediates the depolarizing phase of action potentials in excitable membranes. |
| TNNI3 | Troponin I, cardiac muscle | Troponin I is the inhibitory 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. |
| TMEM43 | Transmembrane protein 43 | May have an important role in maintaining nuclear envelope structure by organizing protein complexes at the inner nuclear membrane. |
| ANK2 | Ankyrin-2 | Plays an essential role in the localization and membrane stabilization of ion transporters and ion channels in several cell types, including cardiomyocytes, as well as in striated muscle cells. |
| KCNH2 | Voltage-gated inwardly rectifying potassium channel KCNH2 | Pore-forming (alpha) subunit of voltage-gated inwardly rectifying potassium channel. |

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.
