Source-derived summary

Adenylyl cyclase-associated protein 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the CAP1 gene.

The protein encoded by this gene is related to the Saccharomyces cerevisiae CAP protein, which is involved in the cyclic AMP pathway. The human protein is able to interact with other molecules of the same protein, as well as with CAP2 and actin.

Interactions

CAP1 has been shown to interact with ACTG1 and CAP2.

Editorial summary

“CAP1” enters the record as gene of the species Homo sapiens. Crown Archives preserves that source wording while asking what CAP1, gene and species can confirm, complicate or overturn.

Editorial reviewA sound reference starting point where classification, measurement and the date of the underlying evidence remain visible. The current 93-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. Its strongest next move is a source search built around CAP1, gene and species.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“CAP1” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, CAP1, gene and species provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

Datasets, specimens, observations and peer-reviewed methods provide the appropriate test for the technical claims summarized here. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 1, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q18035426. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference.

Critical limits

Scientific names, classifications and consensus can change while older terminology persists in catalogues and historical literature. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Check terminology, classification and the date of the cited evidence. Scientific names and technical consensus can change while older records retain historical value.

Three-step research path

  1. Establish the record: confirm the title “CAP1”, its source revision and the description used here.
  2. Expand the search: follow CAP1 primary sources, CAP1 archive and CAP1 research across catalogues and specialist indexes.
  3. Test the account: compare the strongest cited source with the responsible institution’s current record and note any disagreement.

Questions for further research

  1. Which source most directly establishes the central claim about “CAP1”?
  2. Which observation, specimen, dataset or publication supports the account?
  3. Has classification or technical consensus changed since the cited source?
