RNA, U6 small nuclear 915, pseudogene (RNU6-915P)

**RNU6-915P (RNA, U6 small nuclear 915, pseudogene)** is a pseudogene of the U6 small nuclear RNA (snRNA) gene family[4]. U6 snRNA is an essential non-coding RNA involved in pre-mRNA splicing as a catalytic component of the spliceosome; however, pseudogenes like RNU6-915P do not produce functional transcripts and are considered non-protein-coding and non-functional[1][4]. Such pseudogenes may arise from duplication or retrotransposition events and typically lack regulatory elements required for expression or function. There is currently no evidence that RNU6-915P is involved in disease, cellular pathways, or drug interactions; it serves as a genomic DNA sequence related to U6 snRNA without apparent functional or therapeutic relevance[4]. **Notes:** - This "target" is not a validated drug or therapeutic target but a non-functional pseudogene. - If information about canonical splicing-competent U6 snRNA is needed, that is a separate entity (see "U6 spliceosomal RNA" or "U6 snRNA")[1]. - Pseudogenes may have regulatory roles in some contexts, but there is no evidence for involvement of RNU6-915P in such functions[2]; its classification as a "target" is incorrect.
