Family with sequence similarity 32 member B, pseudogene (FAM32BP)

Family with sequence similarity 32 member B, pseudogene (FAM32BP) is an annotated human pseudogene. Pseudogenes are DNA sequences similar to functional genes but typically lack protein-coding capacity due to mutations, truncations, or absence of regulatory elements. In contrast, its counterpart FAM32A is a protein-coding gene involved in pre-mRNA processing and apoptosis, and is considered for research in cell cycle regulation and cancer biology[1]. FAM32BP, however, is not known to encode a functional protein, does not act as a receptor, enzyme, transporter, or recognized signaling molecule, and is not a target for any approved or investigational drugs. There is no evidence for direct biological, disease, or therapeutic relevance.
