Enhancer of zeste 2 polycomb repressive complex 2 subunit pseudogene 1 (EZH2P1)

**Enhancer of zeste 2 polycomb repressive complex 2 subunit pseudogene 1 (EZH2P1)** is a pseudogene corresponding to the enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) gene. It is listed in gene databases as a pseudogene and does not code for a functional protein product[1]. Therefore, it is not a functional molecular target, receptor, enzyme, or therapeutic target. **Context and clarification:** - Pseudogenes like EZH2P1 are DNA sequences similar to known genes but generally nonfunctional; they do not produce catalytically active enzymes or proteins involved in standard cellular pathways[1]. - The functional gene with related significance in cancer, histone modification, and epigenetic regulation is **Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2)**, not EZH2P1[3][5][7]; EZH2 is a methyltransferase subunit of Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2), highly relevant in oncology and epigenetics. - No information traces EZH2P1 to therapeutic targeting, drug interaction, or disease roles[1]. **Note:** If you intend to get information on the functional epigenetic regulator, refer instead to "Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2)" (gene symbol: EZH2).
