Novel ankyrin repeat domain protein pseudogene (AC125634.1)

The novel ankyrin repeat domain protein pseudogene (ENSG00000223602, also named AC125634.1) is a pseudogene in the human genome located on chromosome 9. Pseudogenes are genomic DNA sequences similar to normal genes but typically non-functional due to mutations that prevent protein coding or proper expression. While ankyrin repeat domains are found in protein–protein interaction modules of many functional proteins, this locus does not encode a functional protein or serve a recognized biological function. Some pseudogenes have regulatory roles by acting as non-coding RNAs or through other genetic mechanisms, but there is no evidence this particular pseudogene is functional or relevant to disease or therapy. In summary, this locus is a pseudogene and not a recognized therapeutic target; the entry is best considered non-actionable for drug discovery or clinical biomarker purposes.
