CTD small phosphatase 2 pseudogene

ENSG00000259192 encodes a pseudogene related to the carboxy-terminal domain (CTD) small phosphatase 2 (CTDSP2)[1][3]. Pseudogenes are genomic DNA sequences similar to normal genes but typically nonfunctional due to mutations or lack of regulatory sequences necessary for expression[1][3]. Consequently, this pseudogene does not encode a functional protein and is not known to have a direct biological function, therapeutic role, disease association, or drug interactions. Note: - The canonical functional gene is “CTD small phosphatase 2” (CTDSP2, ENSG00000145431), which is an enzyme with phosphatase activity important in regulating transcription by RNA polymerase II[4][6][9]. - ENSG00000259192 specifically refers to its pseudogene, which is not a therapeutic target, does not produce protein, and is not clinically actionable. - If structured information is required for a therapeutic or functional entity, information about CTDSP2 (not the pseudogene) should be used instead[4][6][9].
