TRPS1 (Zinc finger transcription factor Trps1) is a protein that switches other genes on and off. In the public catalogues the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role. Tied to Breast cancer.
Transcriptional repressor. Binds specifically to GATA sequences and represses expression of GATA-regulated genes at selected sites and stages in vertebrate development. Regulates chondrocyte proliferation and differentiation.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.58 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes literature 0.99, affected pathway 0.25, animal model 0.57, genetic association 0.69).

No product in this corpus aims at TRPS1 yet. Transcription factors have no pocket to plug, so drugs either degrade them or block the partner protein they need to dock on DNA.
First described 2000. Earliest sequence paper UniProt cites for the protein: Momeni et al, Nat. Genet, 2000, "Mutations in a new gene, encoding a zinc-finger protein, cause tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome type I". Source.

Transcriptional repressor. Binds specifically to GATA sequences and represses expression of GATA-regulated genes at selected sites and stages in vertebrate development. Regulates chondrocyte proliferation and differentiation. Executes multiple functions in proliferating chondrocytes, expanding the region of distal chondrocytes, activating proliferation in columnar cells and supporting the differentiation of columnar into hypertrophic chondrocytes. Location: Nucleus (UniProt). Locus 8q23.3 (HGNC).
