SHC adaptor protein 1 pseudogene 1 (SHC1P1)

SHC adaptor protein 1 pseudogene 1 (SHC1P1) refers to a **pseudogene** that is related in sequence to the functional gene SHC1 (SHC adaptor protein 1), which encodes an adaptor protein involved in cell signaling pathways such as those downstream of growth factor receptors. However, a pseudogene such as SHC1P1 does not produce a functional protein and has no known molecular function, disease association, or therapeutic relevance. Only the functional gene, SHC1, encodes an adaptor protein with demonstrated roles in signal transduction, cancer biology, and cell stress response[1][2][3][4]. **Key clarification:** SHC1P1 is a pseudogene, not considered a therapeutic target. All the functional and disease-linked data in literature pertain to SHC1, not SHC1P1. If the intent was to refer to the genuine, protein-coding gene, use "SHC adaptor protein 1 (SHC1)", not "SHC adaptor protein 1 pseudogene 1 (SHC1P1)".
