Family with sequence similarity 41, member C pseudogene (FAM41C pseudogene)

Family with sequence similarity 41, member C pseudogene (FAM41C pseudogene) refers to a non-functional genomic sequence that is highly homologous to the functional FAM41C gene. Pseudogenes like this do not produce active, functional protein products and are generally not considered in drug discovery or as therapeutic targets. While some pseudogenes may have regulatory functions at the RNA level, there is no documented functional or disease association for ENSG00000253166. It is classified as a pseudogene in main genomics references, such as GeneCards, and is not targeted by any approved drugs or experimental therapies[5][4]. Key points: - This entry is not an active or actionable therapeutic target. - It is recommended to review gene symbol accuracy, as sometimes homologous genes (without the "pseudogene" label) could represent functional targets. - If a functional version (without 'pseudogene') exists for 'Family with sequence similarity 41, member C', that may be relevant, but ENSG00000253166 specifically refers to the pseudogene[5][4].
