Ribosomal protein L23a pseudogene 30 (RPL23AP30)

RPL23AP30 (ribosomal protein L23a pseudogene 30) is a processed pseudogene derived from the RPL23A gene, which encodes a structural component of the 60S ribosomal subunit. Pseudogenes such as RPL23AP30 do not encode functional proteins and are typically considered non-functional remnants of evolution, although emerging research suggests some pseudogenes may have regulatory roles in gene expression or disease, particularly in cancer. For RPL23AP30 specifically, there is no evidence of protein coding, biological function, disease relevance, or interaction with drugs. It is not recognized by the scientific or clinical research community as a therapeutic target, biomarker, or regulator.
