EI24 pseudogene 1 (EI24P1)

EI24 pseudogene 1 (EI24P1) is classified as a pseudogene related to the functional EI24 gene, which encodes a transmembrane protein involved in autophagy and cell death—biological processes relevant to tumor suppression and cancer biology[7]. Pseudogenes like EI24P1 do not produce functional protein products and are generally considered non-coding genomic elements. Unlike the parent gene EI24, EI24P1 plays no direct role in cell signaling, autophagy, apoptosis, or disease, and is not considered a therapeutic, diagnostic, or drug target in biomedical research or clinical practice[7][4]. Any reference to drug interactions, safety, or function should properly refer to the parental functional gene EI24, not to the pseudogene.
