Keratin 18 pseudogene 66 (KRT18P66)

Target: KRT18P66
Molecular classification: Other (Pseudogene; not protein-coding)

Overview

Keratin 18 pseudogene 66 (KRT18P66) is a processed pseudogene with high sequence similarity to the functional keratin 18 (KRT18) gene. Pseudogenes like KRT18P66 do not encode functional proteins and have no known biological function, disease association, or therapeutic relevance. A large number of pseudogenes related to keratin 18 exist in the human genome as non-functional remnants arising from gene duplication and retrotransposition events. Nearly 90% of keratin-related pseudogenes relate specifically to keratins 8 and 18[3]. KRT18P66 is a pseudogene, not a druggable target, and has no known biological role or value as a therapeutic target, biomarker, or drug-interacting entity. If you were searching for the functional gene/protein, refer to "Keratin 18" (KRT18) instead.
