KIAA1191 pseudogene 2 (KIAA1191P2)

KIAA1191 pseudogene 2 (KIAA1191P2) is annotated as a pseudogene in the human genome, meaning it is a DNA sequence related to the protein-coding gene KIAA1191 but does not encode a functional protein[2][5]. Pseudogenes typically arise from duplication or retrotransposition events, and while some can be transcribed, they generally lack biological function and are not subject to selection pressure[6]. KIAA1191P2 has no established role in biological processes, molecular pathways, disease, or drug targeting. It should not be considered a therapeutic target for drug development. If your intent is to identify a therapeutic target, you should instead examine the parental, protein-coding gene **KIAA1191**, which encodes a potential NADPH-dependent oxidoreductase that may influence neuronal processes[1].
