Single stranded DNA binding protein pseudogene

ENSG00000220537 (Single stranded DNA binding protein pseudogene, also known as LOC100132659) is a pseudogene listed in the human genome. Pseudogenes are genomic DNA sequences similar to normal genes but are generally non-functional; they typically arise from gene duplication or retrotransposition events and accumulate mutations that prevent them from expressing functional protein. There are no known biological, therapeutic, or clinical roles for this pseudogene, and it is neither a receptor nor an enzyme. It does not serve as a drug target. The single stranded DNA binding protein (SSB) gene family has members important in DNA replication, repair, and recombination, but as a pseudogene, ENSG00000220537 does not produce functional SSB protein and does not participate in these cellular processes[4].
