Molecular classification
Pseudogene, Noncoding RNA (may be transcribed as noncoding RNA)
01

Overview

Chromosome 3 open reading frame 38 pseudogene (ENSG00000230485) is a **pseudogene** related to the protein-coding C3orf38 gene. Pseudogenes are genomic DNA sequences similar to normal genes but are typically nonfunctional due to disabling mutations or lack of regulatory elements. However, some pseudogenes can be transcribed and may play roles in gene regulation, such as acting as microRNA decoys or producing siRNAs, with implications in cancer and cellular regulation[2][3]. There is no evidence that this pseudogene encodes a functional protein or serves as a direct target for drugs. Identifiers and reported genomic coordinates confirm it is a distinct noncoding element related to, but not the same as, the protein-coding C3orf38 gene[4][1].
