Coiled-coil-helix-coiled-coil-helix domain containing 1 pseudogene

The **coiled-coil-helix-coiled-coil-helix domain containing 1 pseudogene** (ENSG00000225681) is classified as a pseudogene—a nonfunctional segment of DNA that closely resembles a functional gene but is incapable of producing a functional protein product[1][5]. Pseudogenes such as this originate from gene duplication or retrotransposition but have acquired disabling mutations, rendering them nonfunctional[5][2]. This particular pseudogene closely resembles the functional CHCHD1 gene (coiled-coil-helix-coiled-coil-helix domain containing 1) but lacks protein-coding ability[1]. Pseudogenes are not considered therapeutic targets and are generally excluded from target-based drug development or biomarker strategies[1][2][5]. No disease association, biological function, or interacting drugs are established for this entry.
