Signal recognition particle 72 pseudogene 2 (SRP72P2)

Signal recognition particle 72 pseudogene 2 (SRP72P2) is a human pseudogene annotated in genomic databases (e.g., NCBI Gene, Ensembl)[2]. Pseudogenes like SRP72P2 are segments of DNA that resemble known genes but are generally non-functional due to mutations, truncations, or lack of regulatory sequences, and they do not appear to produce a functional protein. SRP72P2 is related in sequence to the active gene encoding the signal recognition particle 72 kDa subunit (SRP72), which is a critical component of the signal recognition particle complex involved in targeting secretory and membrane proteins to the endoplasmic reticulum[1][5][7]. However, SRP72P2 itself is not known to play a direct biological or pathological role and is not recognized as a therapeutic target, biomarker, or drug-interacting gene. There is no established function, disease association, or known mechanism of action for any drug related to SRP72P2[2].\n\nNote:\n- If your interest is in the functional *SRP72* gene or protein, not the pseudogene, that is a validated therapeutic target and has been associated with certain bone marrow failure syndromes and roles in protein trafficking[1][5][7].\n- SRP72P2, as a pseudogene, is not considered for therapeutic modulation and has no established biological function or disease association in current scientific literature or genomic annotation resources[2].
