RNA, U6 small nuclear 184, pseudogene (RNU6-184P)

**RNU6-184P** (RNA, U6 small nuclear 184, pseudogene) is a non-protein-coding gene classified as a pseudogene derived from the U6 small nuclear RNA (snRNA) gene family[5]. U6 snRNAs are highly conserved and central to catalyzing pre-mRNA splicing within the spliceosome[3][1]. However, U6 pseudogenes like RNU6-184P result from genomic duplications or rearrangements and typically do not produce functional RNA products or participate in spliceosome function. There is no evidence that RNU6-184P acts as a receptor, enzyme, transporter, or any other classical therapeutic target, nor that it has a role in disease, interacts with drugs, or serves as a clinical biomarker. Its sequence may retain regions of homology to functional U6 snRNA but lacks regulatory elements or structural integrity necessary for normal function[5][4]. The entry is most likely incorrect as a therapeutic target due to its pseudogene status, its lack of molecular function, and absence from drug-target or disease-biomarker databases.
