MMADHC pseudogene 2 (MMADHCP2)

MMADHC pseudogene 2 (MMADHCP2) is a non-functional genomic segment resembling the MMADHC gene, which encodes a protein involved in vitamin B12 metabolism. Unlike the functional MMADHC gene, this pseudogene does not contribute to protein production nor does it play a recognized biological role in metabolism, disease, or drug interaction. MMADHCP2 is annotated in genetic databases as a pseudogene, typically found on chromosome 11 or X, along with MMADHCP1[7]. MMADHCP2 is not considered a therapeutic target, and its listing in disease gene panels is usually for genomic annotation purposes only; there is no evidence for a functional role in disease or interaction with drugs[7]. If you intended to find information about the functional MMADHC gene or protein, that is distinct from this pseudogene and would require a separate query.
