MT-ND3 pseudogene 23 (MTND3P23)

MT-ND3 pseudogene 23 (MTND3P23) is a human gene classified as a pseudogene, related to the protein-coding mitochondrial gene MT-ND3 which encodes a subunit of respiratory chain Complex I[2][4]. Pseudogenes are genomic sequences similar to known genes but typically lack the ability to code for functional proteins due to disabling mutations or regulatory constraints. There is no evidence that MTND3P23 is involved in biological processes, disease mechanisms, drug response, or clinical biomarker use. Its primary relevance is as a genomic locus and not as a therapeutic or functional molecular target. If you were seeking information on the functional protein MT-ND3, which is involved in cellular respiration and has disease relevance, please clarify the query—MTND3P23 is distinct in that it is a pseudogene and not a targetable molecule[2][4].
