Serine palmitoyltransferase, small subunit A pseudogene

Molecular classification: Other, Pseudogene

Overview

This entry refers to a pseudogene related to serine palmitoyltransferase small subunit A. Unlike the functional SPTSSA gene, which encodes a key activator subunit of the serine palmitoyltransferase enzyme (catalyzing the first and rate-limiting step in sphingolipid biosynthesis), this pseudogene does not encode a functional protein and has no recognized role in human biochemistry, disease, or drug therapy[1][3]. Pseudogenes like LOC101928952 arise through gene duplication or retrotransposition but typically accumulate mutations that preclude expression or function.
