CASTOR family member 3, pseudogene (CASTOR3P)

CASTOR family member 3, pseudogene (CASTOR3P) is a human gene classified as a pseudogene, meaning it is a nonfunctional copy or incomplete homolog of a functional gene[1][6]. Predictions suggest that the putative transcript or protein product may play a role in cellular response to L-arginine and the negative regulation of TORC1 (Target of Rapamycin Complex 1) signaling pathways, and its activity is presumed to occur in the cytosol[1][5][7]. Association of the pseudogene with disease is limited, although it has been mentioned in the context of epilepsy; however, its precise role in disease or as a functional protein remains unproven, and it is generally not considered a therapeutic or druggable target[1][3][8].
