RNA binding motif protein 15B pseudogene

RNA binding motif protein 15B pseudogene (ENSG00000250080) is a nonfunctional genomic fragment derived from duplication or retrotransposition of the RBM15B gene. While pseudogenes can sometimes have regulatory or evolutionary roles, there is no evidence that this particular pseudogene encodes a functional protein or is used as a drug target. The protein-coding gene, RBM15B (OTT3), is an RNA-binding protein in the SPEN family known for roles in m6A methylation, mRNA splicing, and nuclear export, but these activities are not attributed to the pseudogene[7][1][3]. This entry describes a *pseudogene* rather than a canonical protein-coding drug target. As pseudogenes are generally nonfunctional and not targeted therapeutically, this target is *not suitable* for drug development or disease association without further evidence[5][2].
