CDKN2A interacting protein N-terminal like pseudogene 1 (CDKN2AIPNLP1)

CDKN2A interacting protein N-terminal like pseudogene 1 (CDKN2AIPNLP1) is a pseudogene in the human genome. Pseudogenes are genomic sequences similar to normal genes but are non-functional; they do not encode functional proteins and are not considered typical biological drug or therapeutic targets. There is no evidence in the current literature or genetic databases for a direct role or function of CDKN2AIPNLP1 in biological pathways, disease mechanisms, or as a therapeutic target. Unlike some well-studied pseudogenes with regulatory "decoy" functions (such as PTENP1 regulating PTEN), there is no direct evidence or published data indicating such a regulatory role for CDKN2AIPNLP1. The gene is primarily catalogued as a non-functional DNA sequence and lacks known aliases, functional properties, or clinical relevance. The abbreviation and name both refer to a pseudogene, which by definition is not a conventional molecular target (receptor, enzyme, etc.), lacks protein product, and is generally not considered "druggable." Selection of this entry as a drug target is likely incorrect, as there is no evidence supporting its status as a target for therapy, nor association with drug mechanisms, biomarkers, or safety concerns. If you are seeking information about CDKN2AIP or the canonical CDKN2AIP gene (not the "like pseudogene 1" variant), that is a functional gene and should be queried separately.
