talpha2

Talpha2 is a symbol that appears in several biological databases and publications as a gene, transcript, or protein identifier. Because gene nomenclature is not fully standardized across all species and platforms, talpha2 does not designate a single, universally recognized molecule.

In different records, talpha2 has been used as an alias for distinct entries. Some records describe protein‑coding genes related to alpha‑subunit products in signaling pathways, while others refer to noncoding RNAs or predicted transcripts bearing the talpha2 label. The exact identity of talpha2 therefore depends on species and database.

Disambiguation and verification: To determine what talpha2 refers to in a given context, consult the organism‑specific databases (such as NCBI Gene, Ensembl, or UniProt) and use the entry’s accession number, species, and functional annotations. Be aware that talpha2 may be a legacy name that has been revised or deprecated.

Because talpha2 is not a single, widely used standard symbol, researchers should treat it as a contextual label and rely on primary sources for precise information. Cross‑database checks and careful reading of the associated metadata are recommended to avoid conflating distinct entities that share the talpha2 designation.
