Pseudogene similar to part of non-metastatic cells 4, protein expressed in NME4

ENSG00000229834 is annotated as a pseudogene, related to the NME4 (non-metastatic cells 4, nucleoside diphosphate kinase 4) protein-coding gene[3]. Pseudogenes are segments of DNA similar to known genes but typically non-functional due to mutations or deletions that prevent protein coding. There is no evidence that this pseudogene produces a functional protein, nor is it implicated as a therapeutic target. Research, therapeutic, or disease relevance for "non-metastatic cells 4, protein expressed in NME4" should instead refer to the actual NME4 gene or its protein product[3][1][4]. If you require information on the functional, druggable gene/protein, see "NME4" (NME/NM23 nucleoside diphosphate kinase 4), which is involved in nucleotide metabolism, mitochondrial function, and is associated with some cancers and metabolic diseases[1][2][4][5].
