CORO1C pseudogene 1 (CORO1CP1)

CORO1C pseudogene 1 (CORO1CP1) is classified as a pseudogene, which is a region of the genome that contains a non-functional, defective copy of the parental protein-coding gene CORO1C[5][6]. Pseudogenes typically arise from gene duplication or retrotransposition events and, due to mutations such as premature stop codons or frameshifts, do not produce a functional protein product[4][6][5]. There is no evidence that CORO1CP1 acts as a receptor, enzyme, or other molecular target, nor that it has current relevance for therapeutics, molecular pathway modulation, or use as a biomarker. All disease and functional associations in the literature are attributed to the active protein-coding gene CORO1C, not its pseudogene[1][2][3]. Thus, CORO1C pseudogene 1 is **not** a drug target, has no characterized biological function or disease role, and does not mediate therapeutic mechanisms. If information about the actual protein-coding **CORO1C** gene is needed, refer directly to "coronin 1C" or "CORO1C" rather than this non-coding pseudogene form[5].
