Interferon omega 1 pseudogene 2 (IFNWP2)

Target: IFNWP2
Molecular classification: Other (Pseudogene)

Overview

Interferon omega 1 pseudogene 2 (IFNWP2) is a non-protein coding pseudogene belonging to the interferon omega family found in the human genome[3]. Unlike its functional counterpart, Interferon omega-1 (IFNW1), IFNWP2 does not produce a functional cytokine and is not directly involved in immunomodulation, antiviral activity, or cancer immunity. Pseudogenes arise via duplication or retrotransposition and lose their protein-coding function due to mutations. They are generally not considered therapeutic targets[3][1]. If you are seeking information on the actual therapeutic target and cytokine, the correct molecule is Interferon omega-1 (abbreviated as IFNW1 or IFN-ω), not IFNWP2[1][3].
