ATP synthase peripheral stalk-membrane subunit b pseudogene 4 (ATP5PBP4)

ATP synthase peripheral stalk-membrane subunit b pseudogene 4 (ATP5PBP4, alias ATP5F1P4) is annotated as a pseudogene in the human genome, meaning it is a non-functional segment of DNA that resembles the functional gene encoding the b subunit of the peripheral stalk of mitochondrial ATP synthase but does not produce a functional protein[2]. The functional gene (not this pseudogene) encodes a core structural component of the mitochondrial ATP synthase complex, which is essential in the synthesis of ATP via oxidative phosphorylation by coupling proton translocation to ATP synthesis in mitochondria[3][1]. This pseudogene is not implicated in any known biological process, disease, or therapeutic targeting, and does not encode a receptor, enzyme, or membrane transporter.
