RNA, U7 small nuclear 110 pseudogene (RNU7-110P)

**RNU7-110P** refers to a *pseudogene* related to the U7 small nuclear RNA gene family. Unlike functional genes, pseudogenes are typically **non-functional DNA sequences that resemble functional genes but are generally not expressed as active proteins or RNAs** in the cell[2][4]. The functional counterpart, RNU7-1, encodes a snRNA that is a critical part of the U7 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) complex, which is necessary for the processing of histone pre-mRNAs, thereby affecting cell cycle regulation and DNA replication[1][3][5]. However, the pseudogene RNU7-110P is not known to encode any protein or functional RNA, nor is it indicated as a therapeutic target or a marker for disease. There are no described roles in disease, no associated drugs, and no evidence that this pseudogene functions in gene regulation akin to some other pseudogenes (e.g., serving as competitive endogenous RNA or miRNA decoy)[2][4]. This target is *not a therapeutic target*, and its inclusion as such would be incorrect. **Note:** The correct functional form for "U7" is usually RNU7-1 or related: "RNA, U7 small nuclear 1". The RNU7-110P entry is a pseudogene, not a validated or actionable drug target.
