LSP1 pseudogene 4 (LSP1P4)

LSP1 pseudogene 4 (LSP1P4) is a pseudogene, meaning it is a genomic sequence similar to the lymphocyte-specific protein 1 gene (LSP1) but is generally non-functional and does not encode a protein product. The gene is officially named LSP1 pseudogene 4, with identifiers including HGNC: 53915, NCBI Gene: 654342, and Ensembl: ENSG00000143429. It is located on chromosome 2. As a pseudogene, LSP1P4 is not known to function as a receptor, enzyme, transporter, or other therapeutic target, and there is no evidence for its involvement in diseases, biological processes, or drug interactions. Pseudogenes like LSP1P4 usually lack a biological function, are not considered therapeutic targets, do not produce protein, and are not known to play roles in disease, cell signaling, or as drug targets. The functional, non-pseudogene form, LSP1 (lymphocyte-specific protein 1), is an actin-binding protein implicated in immune cell migration and potentially in cancer, but LSP1P4 is distinct from LSP1 and does not encode a functional protein. There is no association with drugs, mechanisms of action, or biomarker use for LSP1P4. Therefore, LSP1 pseudogene 4 is not considered a drug target and its inclusion as a receptor or therapeutic target entry is incorrect as it is a non-functional pseudogene and not a protein-coding gene.
