Keratin 18 pseudogene 6 (KRT18P6)

Target: KRT18P6
Molecular classification: Other (Pseudogene, Type I keratin family)

Overview

Keratin 18 pseudogene 6 (KRT18P6) is a human pseudogene within the type I keratin gene family, officially recognized and catalogued by the HGNC[4][5]. Unlike protein-coding keratin genes such as KRT18 (Keratin 18), KRT18P6 does not encode a functional protein and is classified as a pseudogene. Pseudogenes arise from gene duplication or retrotransposition events and generally lack protein-coding capacity, regulatory function, or clinical relevance. There is no evidence supporting a role for KRT18P6 as a receptor, enzyme, transporter, therapeutic target, or clinical biomarker. For structured database purposes, this locus should not be treated as an actionable or druggable target.
