Glucosamine-6-phosphate deaminase 2 pseudogene

The glucosamine-6-phosphate deaminase 2 pseudogene (ENSG00000271166, also known as LOC100420790) is a non-coding pseudogene closely related to the functional glucosamine-6-phosphate deaminase 2 gene (GNPDA2), which catalyzes the conversion of D-glucosamine-6-phosphate into D-fructose-6-phosphate and ammonium in carbohydrate metabolism[1][2][4][12]. This pseudogene does not encode a functional protein and is not a known therapeutic or biological target. If therapeutic or biochemical relevance is desired, refer to the protein-coding GNPDA2 gene instead. Key note: The entry "glucosamine-6-phosphate deaminase 2 pseudogene" is NOT a valid molecular target for drug discovery or therapeutic intervention—it is a pseudogene. For functional, disease, or drug-related information, reference the protein-coding GNPDA2 gene[12].
