Keratin 8 pseudogene 29 (KRT8P29)

Target: KRT8P29
Molecular classification: Other (pseudogene; not an active member of keratin protein families)

Overview

Keratin 8 pseudogene 29 (KRT8P29) is a pseudogene within the large human keratin gene family. Pseudogenes are genomic DNA sequences similar to functional genes but are generally non-protein-coding due to mutations or lack of regulatory elements. KRT8P29 does not code for a functional keratin protein, unlike its closely related functional gene KRT8, which encodes keratin 8, a type II intermediate filament protein vital for epithelial cell structure and function. Pseudogenes such as KRT8P29 are not targets for therapeutic drugs, do not serve as typical disease biomarkers, and have no established role in biological processes or diseases[5][4].
