RNA, 7SL, cytoplasmic 379, pseudogene (RN7SL379P)

**RNA, 7SL, cytoplasmic 379, pseudogene (RN7SL379P)** is a human non-coding RNA locus designated as a pseudogene, meaning it resembles the gene for 7SL RNA—a core component of the signal recognition particle—but is considered non-functional due to accumulated mutations or truncations rendering it incapable of producing a functional RNA product[1][5][6][7]. Most 7SL-related loci in the genome are pseudogenes, likely generated by reverse transcription events, and do not participate in canonical roles of the authentic 7SL RNA[5][7]. While some pseudogenes have been shown to exert regulatory influence on cognate genes or cellular processes (such as acting as miRNA decoys, generating regulatory RNAs, or influencing cancer biology), there is no literature evidence that RN7SL379P itself has such biological activity or is a therapeutic target[2][1]. Thus, RN7SL379P represents a non-coding, non-functional, and non-therapeutic human gene locus.
