Ribosomal protein L23 pseudogene 11 (RPL23P11)

Ribosomal protein L23 pseudogene 11 (RPL23P11) is classified as a processed pseudogene related to the functional RPL23 gene, which encodes a component of the 60S subunit of the ribosome[1][5]. Pseudogenes like RPL23P11 do not code for functional proteins and are typically the result of gene duplication or retrotransposition events; they often retain sequence similarity to their parent gene but are generally considered nonfunctional in terms of protein synthesis[5].\nThere is no evidence that RPL23P11 encodes an active protein or functions as a receptor, enzyme, transporter, or other classical drug target[5].\nWhile some ribosomal protein pseudogenes have been studied for possible roles as regulatory noncoding RNAs, including effects on gene expression in cancer, this is not established for RPL23P11[2]. Thus, RPL23P11 is not recognized as a therapeutic target or biomarker, and its biological or pharmacological relevance remains uncharacterized.\nNote:\nThis query was likely intended for a real gene or protein target (such as functional RPL23), but RPL23P11 is instead a non-coding pseudogene. Entries like RPL23P11 are not generally considered drug discovery targets or actionable biological entities[1][5].
