PRSS3 pseudogene 1 (PRSS3P1)

**PRSS3 pseudogene 1 (PRSS3P1), also known as TRY5, is classified as a pseudogene rather than a functional protein-coding gene.** Pseudogenes are stretches of DNA that resemble functional genes but typically lack the ability to encode an active protein due to mutations, deletions, or insertions that disrupt the normal coding sequence or regulatory elements. PRSS3P1 is related by sequence similarity to serine proteases, specifically the trypsinogen/trypsin family, but current evidence does not support it encoding a functional enzyme or having an established biological or therapeutic role[5][2][11].
