Proteasome 26S subunit ATPase 1 pseudogene 2 (PSMC1P2)

PSMC1P2 is a **pseudogene** that is homologous to the functional *PSMC1* gene, which encodes an ATPase subunit of the 26S proteasome complex involved in protein degradation. As a pseudogene, PSMC1P2 does not encode a functional protein, is not considered a therapeutic target, and is not known to have a biological role or disease association. It serves as a non-functional genomic remnant, and should not be confused with proteasome subunits that have therapeutic relevance[1][7]. - The presence of "pseudogene" in its name and confirmation from major gene databases indicate that **PSMC1P2 is not a protein-coding gene and does not function as a drug target**[1][7]. - If you are seeking information on proteasome ATPase subunits with therapeutic or biological relevance, refer to functional genes such as *PSMC1* or *PSMC2*, which are components of the 26S proteasome complex and have distinct enzymatic roles in proteostasis[5][3].
