Phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase alpha pseudogene 2 (PI4KAP2)

Phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase alpha pseudogene 2 (PI4KAP2) is annotated as a **pseudogene** in humans and is located on chromosome 22[6]. It shares sequence similarity with phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase alpha and is predicted based on homology to have kinase-related activity, but evidence suggests it does **not encode a functional protein**[3][4][6]. It is not cataloged as a therapeutic target, does not have established molecular function or involvement in disease, and is not associated with any drugs or mechanisms of action. As a pseudogene, PI4KAP2 does not possess any known biological, pharmacological, or clinical relevance[3][4][6]. Key notes: - The submitted target is a **pseudogene**, so **it is not a functional receptor, enzyme, transporter, or established drug target**[3][4][6]. - Listing as a therapeutic/direct druggable target is incorrect. - If you are searching for the functional kinase, refer to "Phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase alpha" (PI4KA), which is a separate, functional gene/enzyme[1][2][7].
