Chromosome 6 open reading frame 221 pseudogene (C6orf221 pseudogene)
- Target
- C6orf221 pseudogene
- Molecular classification
- Pseudogene, Other (Pseudogenes are typically categorized separately from functional protein-coding genes)
01
Overview
Chromosome 6 open reading frame 221 pseudogene (C6orf221 pseudogene, ENSG00000251123) is a nonfunctional genomic DNA sequence located on chromosome 6 that is homologous to a protein-coding gene but incapable of producing a functional protein product. Pseudogenes like this are often remnants of once-functional genes rendered inactive by disabling mutations and are considered part of the so-called "junk DNA" in the genome. There is no evidence that this particular pseudogene carries out any documented biological regulatory functions or plays a role in disease, nor is it referenced as a therapeutic or biomarker target in clinical or preclinical contexts.

02
Biological functions
Other (No known protein product or canonical function)Pseudogenes can occasionally act as regulatory noncoding RNAs, but there is no evidence for ENSG00000251123 serving such a role
03
Disease associations
Other (No established disease relevance)Pseudogenes as a class can sometimes regulate tumor suppressors/oncogenes as miRNA decoys, but no such evidence is present for this specific pseudogene
