Ribosomal protein L7a pseudogene 46 (RPL7AP46)

Ribosomal protein L7a pseudogene 46 (RPL7AP46) is a processed pseudogene found in the human genome. It is derived from the *RPL7A* gene, which encodes a component of the large 60S ribosomal subunit, but RPL7AP46 itself is noncoding and not translated into a functional protein[4]. Pseudogenes like RPL7AP46 are common and arise from gene duplication or retrotransposition events, but they are generally inactive and do not participate in cellular functions, signaling, or disease processes[4]. RPL7AP46 should not be considered a therapeutic target; instead, it is an inactive genomic sequence without known biological or biomedical relevance. If you are seeking information on drug targets, receptors, or biologically active proteins, RPL7AP46 is not appropriate. For clinically relevant information, refer to the functional gene encoding ribosomal protein L7a (RPL7A)[1][9].
