Regulator of Chromosome Condensation 1 pseudogene (RCC1 pseudogene (ENSG00000218713))

Regulator of Chromosome Condensation 1 pseudogene (ENSG00000218713) is a nonfunctional genetic element that resembles the RCC1 gene, which encodes a protein involved in the onset of chromosome condensation and cell cycle control[3][5]. Pseudogenes like ENSG00000218713 are characterized by high sequence similarity to their functional parent genes but are usually incapable of producing functional proteins due to disruptive mutations[2][4][6]. This pseudogene has no confirmed biological activity or druggability and is not considered a proper therapeutic target. Though some pseudogenes can sometimes regulate gene expression at the RNA level, such effects are not established for ENSG00000218713[6]. No drugs, biomarker status, or disease relevance is specifically attributed to this pseudogene, and its annotation as a "target" is inaccurate in a pharmacological or functional protein context[2][4][5][6].
