Rac family small GTPase 1 pseudogene 5 (RAC1P5)

RAC1P5 (Psi1Rac1) is annotated as a pseudogene related to RAC1, which itself encodes a small GTPase of the Rho family[5][1]. The pseudogene designation means RAC1P5 does not encode a functioning protein, does not act as a drug target, and does not share the functional, therapeutic, or pathological roles of RAC1. There is currently no clear evidence that RAC1P5 has any biological function, involvement in disease, or relevance as a biomarker or therapeutic target. It may sometimes be referenced in databases solely for its sequence similarity to RAC1, but functionally it is generally disregarded in molecular pharmacology and drug discovery contexts.\nRAC1P5 is a pseudogene and not a protein-coding, functional target. Queries or interpretations treating RAC1P5 as a therapeutic target, receptor, enzyme, or transporter are incorrect. For scientific or therapeutic reference, information should instead concern the parent gene/protein Rac family small GTPase 1 (RAC1), which is a validated molecular target involved in cell signaling, cytoskeletal reorganization, cancer, and other diseases[6][3][5]. RAC1P5 should not be confused with RAC1[5].\nRAC1P5 is a pseudogene, not a receptor, enzyme, or drug target.\nIt has no established aliases beyond its systematic name.\nIt belongs to the pseudogene class.\nIt lacks characterized biological function, disease relevance, and drug interactions.\nInformation treating RAC1P5 as an active target is incorrect.\nFor RAC1 as an active protein, see data on "Rac family small GTPase 1" (RAC1)[6][3][5].
