Proteasome activator subunit 2 pseudogene 1 (PSME2P1)

PSME2P1 (Proteasome activator subunit 2 pseudogene 1) is a human pseudogene located on chromosome 8 that is homologous to the functional PSME2 gene, which encodes the beta subunit of the 11S proteasome activator complex (PA28 beta). PSME2P1 itself does **not** encode a functional protein and is classified as a pseudogene. While some pseudogenes may play regulatory roles at the RNA level by acting as microRNA decoys or influencing expression of their parental genes, there is currently no reported evidence of such a function for PSME2P1. Therefore, PSME2P1 is **not considered a receptor, enzyme, transporter, or other classical molecular therapeutic target**, and there are no associated drugs, mechanisms of action, or biomarker information for this pseudogene. If you are seeking information about a functional component of the proteasome, such as the **proteasome activator subunit 2 (PSME2, PA28 beta)**, refer instead to entries for the actual coding gene/protein, not to this pseudogene. **Clarification:** The entry "proteasome activator subunit 2 pseudogene 1" (PSME2P1) is a non-coding pseudogene and **not** a functional gene or protein. It is not a druggable or actionable therapeutic target. If your interest concerns the biologically active PA28 beta subunit, that target is encoded by the PSME2 gene, not by PSME2P1.
