Functions of Four key Genes and the KEGG Pathway.

Genes Location Function Super Pathway
FGG chr4 Together with fibrinogen alpha (FGA) and fibrinogen beta (FGB), it polymerizes to form an insoluble fibrin matrix. It has a major function in hemostasis, as one of the primary components of blood clots. Signaling downstream of RAS mutants
Toll Like Receptor 3 (TLR3) Cascade
Response to elevated platelet cytosolic Ca2+
MAPK family signaling cascades
Diseases of the immune system
PROCR chr20 It binds activated protein C and enhances protein C activation via the thrombin–thrombomodulin complex. Diseases of hemostasis
Response to elevated platelet cytosolic Ca2+
Cell surface interactions at the vascular wall
NPC1 chr18 It is an intracellular cholesterol transporter, which acts in concert with NPC2 and plays an important role in the egress of cholesterol from the endosomal. Plasma lipoprotein assembly
Cholesterol and sphingolipids transport
Transport of inorganic cations/anions
Degradation pathway of sphingolipids
ARHGAP24 chr4 It is an Rho GTPase-activating protein involved in cell polarity, cell morphology, and cytoskeletal organization. Signaling via Rho GTPases
RHOC GTPase cycle
Signal transduction
