Mitochondrial ribosomal protein S31 pseudogene 2 (MRPS31P2)

01
Overview
Mitochondrial ribosomal protein S31 pseudogene 2 (MRPS31P2) is a non-protein coding pseudogene that is homologous to the gene encoding mitochondrial ribosomal protein S31, a nuclear-encoded component of the mitochondrial 28S ribosomal small subunit. Unlike its parent gene MRPS31, MRPS31P2 does not produce a functional ribosomal protein and lacks experimental evidence for functional protein-coding or disease relevance in humans. It is typically classified as a processed pseudogene and is not considered a therapeutic or pharmacological target. As with other pseudogenes, possible RNA-level regulatory effects cannot be excluded entirely, but no such function has been established for MRPS31P2.

02
Mechanism of action
Not applicable
03
Biological functions
No well-established protein-coding function; classified as a pseudogene. Pseudogenes are generally non-functional genomic elements, but recent studies in other systems show some pseudogene transcripts can act as competitive endogenous RNAs affecting gene regulation.
04
Disease associations
No direct evidence for a disease role. Pseudogenes generally do not encode functional proteins and are not considered primary disease drivers, although regulatory roles have been implicated for other pseudogenes in cancer or other diseases.
