Acyl-Coenzyme A binding domain containing 7 pseudogene

The acyl-Coenzyme A binding domain containing 7 pseudogene (ENSG00000225625) is a genomic sequence related to the ACBD7 gene, which encodes a small protein expressed in the spleen, thymus, and brain and is involved in neural signaling and energy homeostasis[3][1]. As a pseudogene, ENSG00000225625 does not produce a functional protein due to deleterious mutations or truncations[2][4]. While ACBD7 itself has biological functions, its pseudogene is largely considered non-functional and is typically excluded from lists of validated therapeutic targets. Key points: - This entry refers to a pseudogene, not the functional ACBD7 gene or protein. - Pseudogenes are generally not considered therapeutic targets. - There may be confusion due to similar naming with the active ACBD7 gene, which participates in neuronal regulation of food intake and energy balance[1]. - No aliases, drugs, biomarkers, or disease roles are documented for this pseudogene. If you are seeking information on the functional protein-coding ACBD7 gene, you should refer to "Acyl-Coenzyme A binding domain containing 7" (ACBD7), not its pseudogene, as only the gene/protein has known biology and potential relevance in disease and signaling[1][3].
