Chaperonin containing TCP1 subunit 6A pseudogene

This target refers to a **pseudogene** related to the protein-coding gene *Chaperonin containing TCP1 subunit 6A* (CCT6A), a molecular chaperone involved in the correct folding of actin, tubulin, and other cytosolic proteins as part of the chaperonin-containing TCP1 complex (TRiC/CCT)[4][5][6]. The pseudogene itself does **not code** for a functional protein, lacks documented biological activity, and is **not considered a therapeutic target**. Sometimes, sequences for pseudogenes are annotated in databases, but unless explicitly shown to have biological function (e.g., as regulatory non-coding RNA), they do not participate in disease pathways or drug interactions[2]. If your goal is to identify a druggable or biologically relevant molecule, you should refer to the functional gene CCT6A rather than its pseudogene. Additional context and clarification: - The **Ensembl ID ENSG00000254482** maps to a pseudogene, not to the protein-coding gene. The functional gene (*CCT6A*) is encoded by ENSG00000146731[4]. - If your query intended to target the functional protein, refer to *Chaperonin containing TCP1 subunit 6A* (CCT6A), which is implicated in cell cycle, protein folding, and several cancer types as an oncogene[3][5][6]. - The pseudogene does not have known therapeutic utility, safety concerns, or biomarker relevance. Summary: The provided target is a pseudogene, not a protein, and therefore is **not a valid therapeutic target**. For research on function, disease implications, or pharmacology, consult information for *Chaperonin containing TCP1 subunit 6A (CCT6A)* and its canonical identifiers such as ENSG00000146731[4][5][6][2].
