RNA, 5S ribosomal pseudogene 455 (RNA5SP455)

RNA, 5S ribosomal pseudogene 455 (RNA5SP455) is an annotated pseudogene found in the human genome. Pseudogenes are genomic DNA sequences similar to normal genes but are non-functional; they result from gene duplication or retrotransposition events and typically bear disabling mutations such as frameshifts or premature stop codons. RNA5SP455 is classified as a 5S ribosomal RNA pseudogene, meaning it derives from the 5S rRNA gene family but does not contribute a functional 5S rRNA transcript to the ribosome. As a pseudogene, it does not participate in biological processes, pathogenesis, or cell signaling and has no demonstrated clinical or therapeutic relevance.
