RNA polymerase III subunit G pseudogene 1 (POLR3GP1)

POLR3GP1 (RNA polymerase III subunit G pseudogene 1) is classified as a pseudogene located on chromosome 14. Pseudogenes are typically DNA sequences similar to known genes but do not produce functional proteins. POLR3GP1 is related by sequence to the POLR3G gene, which encodes the functional RNA polymerase III subunit G (RPC7α). Unlike its protein-coding paralog POLR3G, which is implicated in the regulation of small non-coding RNA transcription and cancer biology[1][4][7], POLR3GP1 itself lacks biological activity and is not a direct drug target or biomarker for any disease[5]. No interacting drugs, mechanisms, or disease associations are known for this gene. All known disease and drug-relevant information relates to the functional POLR3G gene, not the pseudogene POLR3GP1.
