Proteasome 26S subunit, non-ATPase, 10 pseudogene 2 (PSMD10P2)

PSMD10P2, or "proteasome 26S subunit, non-ATPase, 10 pseudogene 2", is a human pseudogene (NCBI Gene ID: 280644; Ensembl: ENSG00000226652)[3][5][1]. It does not encode a functional protein product and is not known to play a direct biological role or serve as a drug target. The name implies it is related by sequence to the functional proteasome subunit PSMD10, but "P2" and the "pseudogene" designation indicate it is a non-functional genetic element[1][3][5]. No alternative names, protein products, drug interactions, nor disease associations have been reported. Additional context: There is frequent confusion between pseudogenes like PSMD10P2 and the active subunits of the proteasome regulatory complex, such as PSMD2 or PSMD10, which are well-studied components involved in protein degradation and have established roles in cancer biology and therapeutic research[2][7]. However, PSMD10P2 itself does not encode such an active subunit[1][3][5].
