Capping protein (actin filament) muscle Z-line, alpha 2 pseudogene

ENSG00000261549 corresponds to a pseudogene of the CAPZA2 gene, which encodes the F-actin-capping protein subunit alpha-2 in its protein-coding form. As a pseudogene, ENSG00000261549 does not produce a functional protein and has no established biological function, clinical relevance, or pharmacological targeting potential. The functional CAPZA2 protein plays a role in capping actin filaments at the Z-line in muscle, but this does not apply to its pseudogene copy[9][1]. Summary of what’s incorrect or missing: - This entry is a pseudogene, not a functional molecule or receptor. - It is not a therapeutic target. - There are no known interacting drugs, disease associations, or biological activities. The gene ENSG00000261549 should not be used when searching for functional or therapeutic targets; instead, focus should be on "CAPZA2" (F-actin-capping protein subunit alpha-2) for research on actin capping proteins[1][9].
