A kinase (PRKA) interacting protein 1 pseudogene

A kinase (PRKA) interacting protein 1 pseudogene (ENSG00000218730) is a non-coding genomic sequence related to the AKIP1 gene, which encodes a nuclear protein involved in cAMP-dependent protein kinase signaling and regulation of NF-kappa-B activation[4]. The pseudogene itself does not produce a functional protein, is not considered a therapeutic target, and has no significant molecular, biological, or clinical roles. If information was sought for a protein-coding target, refer instead to the AKIP1 gene, whose protein product is a nuclear regulator of protein kinase A signaling[4].\n\nKey clarification:\n- Pseudogenes like ENSG00000218730 do not encode active proteins and thus are not classified as therapeutic targets, such as receptors, enzymes, or transporters[4].\n- If you are seeking a pharmacologically or biologically relevant target, use the actual gene/protein: A kinase (PRKA) interacting protein 1 (AKIP1).\n\nThis entry is correct only for genomic annotation purposes. It is *not* a therapeutic/pharmacological target.
