RNA, 5S ribosomal pseudogene 395 (RNA5SP395)

RNA, 5S ribosomal pseudogene 395 is a **pseudogene**—a nonfunctional genomic segment that resembles the 5S ribosomal RNA gene but does not produce a functional RNA or protein product[1][6]. 5S ribosomal RNA itself plays a structural role in ribosomes, but pseudogenes like RNA5SP395 are typically the result of gene duplication or retrotransposition and are not translated or involved in cellular processes[1][6]. There are numerous 5S pseudogenes in the human genome. These are categorized as rRNA pseudogenes in gene databases and are not involved in ribosomal assembly or function[2][1]. Although pseudogenes may occasionally be transcribed at low levels, they are generally considered nonfunctional, and there is no evidence RNA5SP395 is a biomarker, drug target, or has any validated clinical significance[1][6].
