Keratin 8 pseudogene 26 (KRT8P26)

Target: KRT8P26
Molecular classification: Pseudogene, processed pseudogene, non-protein-coding

Overview

Keratin 8 pseudogene 26 (KRT8P26) is a member of the large family of keratin-derived pseudogenes found dispersed throughout the human genome[1][2]. It is a non-functional, processed pseudogene that originates from the keratin 8 gene (KRT8), a type II intermediate filament protein that is important in the structural integrity of epithelial cells[3][8]. However, KRT8P26 does not encode protein and is not actively involved in molecular, cellular, or disease processes. Its nomenclature is consistent with the designation system for human keratin pseudogenes. There is no evidence supporting a role for KRT8P26 in therapy, disease, or as a pharmacological/interventional target[1][7].
