Cytochrome P450 family 4 subfamily F polypeptide 8 pseudogene (CYP4F8 pseudogene)

Target: CYP4F8 pseudogene
Molecular classification: Other (Pseudogene; derived from enzyme)

Overview

ENSG00000253195, also known as Cytochrome P450 family 4 subfamily F polypeptide 8 pseudogene, is a nonfunctional segment of DNA similar to the CYP4F8 gene, which encodes a cytochrome P450 enzyme involved in fatty acid metabolism[4][2]. Pseudogenes such as this do not encode functional proteins and are generally regarded as 'genomic fossils.' They can sometimes be transcribed at low levels, but do not have known significant biological, therapeutic, or diagnostic relevance[2][4]. The functional CYP4F8 gene is important in fatty acid and prostaglandin metabolism, but this pseudogene is not functional and does not serve as a drug target.

Other names: CYP4F8PCytochrome P450 4F8 pseudogene
