RNA, U7 small nuclear 115 pseudogene (RNU7-115P)

**RNA, U7 small nuclear 115 pseudogene (RNU7-115P)** is a human pseudogene and does not encode a functional protein or RNA product. It shares sequence similarity with U7 small nuclear RNA genes, which in their active, non-pseudogene forms play a specific role in the processing of histone pre-mRNA. However, as a pseudogene, RNU7-115P is generally considered nonfunctional and is not known to contribute directly to cellular processes or disease mechanisms. It does not act as a therapeutic target, does not interact with any drugs, and is not used as a biomarker. Its primary significance is as part of the class of processed pseudogenes in the human genome, which arise from gene duplication or retrotransposition events but lack the ability to produce functional gene products[2][5][6].
