Sec61 beta subunit pseudogene

The "Sec61 beta subunit pseudogene" (ENSG00000254780) is a non-coding pseudogene located on human chromosome 11, related by sequence to the SEC61B gene which encodes the beta subunit of the Sec61 protein translocation complex of the endoplasmic reticulum[3][7]. Pseudogenes like this one typically do not produce functional protein products and are generally not involved in normal biological processes, disease mechanisms, or therapeutic targeting[3][7]. The canonical, functionally active gene is SEC61B, which encodes a key component of the ER protein translocation translocon complex[1][2][4][6]. Clarification: if a functional protein was the intended target, SEC61B is the appropriate entry, not this pseudogene.
