Aminoacyl tRNA synthetase complex interacting multifunctional protein 1 pseudogene 1 (AIMP1P1)

Aminoacyl tRNA synthetase complex interacting multifunctional protein 1 pseudogene 1 (AIMP1P1) is a non-protein-coding pseudogene found in the human genome[1]. Pseudogenes such as AIMP1P1 are homologous to protein-coding genes but have lost the ability to produce functional proteins, often due to mutations or truncations. Although pseudogenes may regulate the expression of related genes via ceRNA activity or by producing non-coding RNAs that affect gene regulation, AIMP1P1 has no documented biological function and is neither a receptor nor an enzyme. It does not have a known role in disease, nor is it considered a pharmacological target. The target is likely included due to misinterpretation of its name, as true therapeutic targets are generally protein-coding genes with functional products[1][4].
