MIX23 pseudogene 3 (MIX23P3)

MIX23 pseudogene 3 is a pseudogene identified in human and other species genomes and is an unprocessed genomic copy related to the protein-coding gene MIX23, also known in some contexts as coiled-coil domain containing 58 (CCDC58)[3][5]. As a pseudogene, it does not encode a functional protein and is not considered a therapeutic drug target. Pseudogenes are typically characterized as nonfunctional copies of protein-coding genes, often resulting from gene duplication or retrotransposition events[4][9]. MIX23P3, sometimes referred to as CCDC58P3, is not involved in known cellular pathways, and there are no data linking it to drug interactions, direct disease associations, or biomarker roles[3][5][8]. If your intent was to find information on the functional protein-coding gene MIX23 (Mitochondrial Matrix Import Factor 23/CCDC58), note that the pseudogene is distinct and nonfunctional; the protein-coding gene does participate in mitochondrial protein import through mechanisms involving mitochondrial stress and the disulfide relay system[1][2][7].
