Inositol polyphosphate multikinase pseudogene

ENSG00000267056 (also known as "Inositol polyphosphate multikinase pseudogene" or "LOC729654") is a pseudogene related to the functional gene Inositol polyphosphate multikinase (IPMK). As a pseudogene, it does not encode a functional protein and, to current knowledge, has no direct biological function, molecular activity, or role in disease. It is not considered a therapeutic target, nor does it interact with any known drugs[7][4]. Context and Notes: - The functional IPMK gene encodes a key enzyme involved in inositol phosphate metabolism and important signaling pathways[1][3][8]. However, ENSG00000267056 is explicitly a pseudogene and, as such, should not be considered a true molecular target. - Results from GeneCards confirm that ENSG00000267056 is classified as a pseudogene, making it non-coding and functionally distinct from the protein-coding IPMK gene[7][4]. - No evidence was found linking ENSG00000267056 to receptor, enzyme, transporter, or other druggable target classifications; all reported IPMK functions relate to the active, protein-coding IPMK gene (not this pseudogene). - Aliases such as "LOC729654" and "IPMKP1" also designate pseudogene status[4][7]. If you seek information on the functional enzyme "Inositol polyphosphate multikinase" (IPMK), please clarify, as all molecular and disease associations relate to the coding gene, not this pseudogene.
