Ribosomal protein L31 pseudogene 24 (RPL31P24)

RPL31P24 (ribosomal protein L31 pseudogene 24) is a human pseudogene identified in genomic DNA corresponding to the gene for ribosomal protein L31. Unlike functional ribosomal protein genes, RPL31P24 does not encode a protein and is generally not transcribed or translated. Pseudogenes are sequences in the genome that resemble known genes but typically contain mutations or deletions that prevent them from producing functional proteins. RPL31P24 is mentioned in gene databases and scientific product catalogs because of its genomic presence, but it is not biologically active and has no documented role as a therapeutic target or in disease mechanism[5][7][8][9][11].
