Cyclin Y-like pseudogene

Cyclin Y-like pseudogene (ENSG00000267623) is a DNA sequence in the human genome that shows high sequence similarity to the functional cyclin Y gene but does not encode a functional protein. Pseudogenes such as this lack biological activity as proteins and are not used directly as drug targets. While some pseudogenes can affect gene regulation or have regulatory RNA roles, there are no reported specific functions, disease associations, or drug interactions for this pseudogene. Its annotation as a pseudogene highlights that it represents a non-functional copy of a gene rather than a gene encoding a protein product[1][2][4][12].
