Pyridine nucleotide-disulphide oxidoreductase domain 1 pseudogene

Pyridine nucleotide-disulphide oxidoreductase domain 1 pseudogene (ENSG00000213252, also called LOC100422300) is classified as a *pseudogene* in the human genome. This means it is a non-functional genomic element related by sequence to the functional **PYROXD1** gene, which encodes a pyridine nucleotide-disulphide oxidoreductase enzyme. Unlike the functional gene or protein, the pseudogene does **not** produce a protein product and lacks known molecular functions, disease associations, or drug interactions. It can sometimes be misidentified as a target due to confusion with the active PYROXD1 gene, which is genuinely associated with specific myopathies, but these functions do not apply to the pseudogene[5][1][3]. If you are seeking information on the **functional protein target**, refer to "Pyridine nucleotide-disulphide oxidoreductase domain 1" (PYROXD1), not its pseudogene.
