RNA, 7SL, cytoplasmic 665, pseudogene (RN7SL665P)

**RNA, 7SL, cytoplasmic 665, pseudogene (RN7SL665P)** is a pseudogene of the 7SL RNA gene family in humans. The 7SL RNA encodes the RNA component of the signal recognition particle (SRP), essential for protein targeting to the endoplasmic reticulum, but RN7SL665P itself is a **pseudogene**—it does not produce functional RNA and is not translated into protein[1][5]. Pseudogenes like RN7SL665P are truncated or mutated copies of coding or functional RNA genes and **do not act as receptors, enzymes, or drug targets**. Most of the hundreds of 7SL RNA-like sequences in the human genome are pseudogenes, believed to result from retrotransposition events involving the 7SL RNA, and while the parent functional 7SL RNA is essential to protein targeting, **individual pseudogenes like RN7SL665P are not associated with active biological roles or disease processes**[1][5]. Some pseudogenes in other contexts can regulate gene expression (e.g., as competitive endogenous RNAs or miRNA sponges), but there is **no evidence that RN7SL665P plays such roles**[1][4][5]. **In summary:** RN7SL665P is a non-coding, non-functional RNA pseudogene—**not a therapeutic target, not a protein, not involved in known diseases, with no known clinical, biomarker, or drug associations**[1][5].
