Nucleophosmin 1 pseudogene 39 (NPM1P39)

Nucleophosmin 1 pseudogene 39 (NPM1P39) is a genomic DNA sequence related to the NPM1 gene but has lost the ability to code for a functional protein, primarily due to accumulated mutations and lack of necessary regulatory regions[2][6]. Pseudogenes such as NPM1P39 are classified by their origin (processed or unprocessed), and while some pseudogenes have been shown to modulate gene expression or participate in gene regulatory networks, NPM1P39 itself does not possess documented functional, regulatory, or disease associations distinct from its parent gene, nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1)[2][6][8]. Its relevance is mainly genomic, with potential—but unproven—roles in gene regulation by mechanisms such as miRNA sponging or gene conversion. It is not a protein, enzyme, transporter, or receptor, nor is it a known drug target.
