Pseudogene similar to lipoproteins (contains kringle domains) (ENSG00000220913)

This entry refers to a **pseudogene** carrying sequence similarity to genes encoding lipoprotein family proteins—especially those containing kringle domains—but is itself nonfunctional and does **not** encode any protein product. Pseudogenes typically arise through gene duplication or retrotransposition events followed by loss of protein-coding ability, often due to frameshift mutations, premature stop codons, or lack of regulatory elements. In this case, "pseudogene similar to lipoproteins" remains a noncoding segment with no current evidence for producing regulatory RNA or protein. Pseudogenes can sometimes interfere with molecular biology assays due to their high similarity to functional genes but otherwise have **no established role as drug targets or biomarkers**[1][2][5].

None.
