5S ribosomal RNA pseudogene 215 (RNA5SP215)

RNA, 5S ribosomal pseudogene 215 (RNA5SP215) is a pseudogene derived from the 5S ribosomal RNA gene family. Pseudogenes of this class are nonfunctional copies of functional ribosomal RNA genes and do not encode an active rRNA, enzyme, receptor, or protein. As a typical pseudogene, RNA5SP215 does not have a protein product and lacks known biological function, established disease roles, or interaction with drugs[2]. It is cataloged in human genomic databases due to its homology with 5S rRNA gene sequences. RNA, 5S ribosomal pseudogene 215 (RNA5SP215) is a nonfunctional, noncoding RNA derived from the 5S rRNA gene, classified as a pseudogene with no known biological or therapeutic relevance[2].
