Keratin 16 pseudogene 1 (KRT16P1)

Target: KRT16P1
Molecular classification: Pseudogene, Other

Overview

Keratin 16 pseudogene 1 (KRT16P1) is classified as a type I keratin pseudogene in the human genome[3]. Pseudogenes are non-functional genomic segments related to genes that typically do not produce functional proteins and play no established role in cellular biology or disease. Unlike protein-coding keratin genes, which support epithelial structure and integrity, KRT16P1 does not participate in cellular or tissue architecture, signaling, or pathogenesis. It does not encode a therapeutic target and has no direct role in pharmacology or disease[3][4]. If you need information on keratin 16 (KRT16), which is a protein-coding gene involved in epidermal integrity and several skin diseases, refer to "Keratin 16 (KRT16)", not the pseudogene KRT16P1[1].
