Small nuclear ribonucleoprotein polypeptide C pseudogene 15 (SNRPCP15)

Small nuclear ribonucleoprotein polypeptide C pseudogene 15 (SNRPCP15) is classified as a **pseudogene**—a genomic DNA sequence similar to a functional gene but typically non-coding due to mutations, lack of regulatory elements, or sequence truncation[1]. SNRPCP15 is related to the small nuclear ribonucleoprotein polypeptide C (SNRPC) gene, which is involved in the assembly of the spliceosome complex. However, **as a pseudogene, SNRPCP15 does not encode a functional protein and has no known biological or disease role**. It is neither a receptor, enzyme, transporter, nor a target of any known drug. No literature reports SNRPCP15 expression, biological function, or medical relevance[1]. Pseudogenes can sometimes generate non-coding RNAs that have regulatory functions, but there is no evidence to suggest SNRPCP15 exerts such effects[1]. This target is likely **not suitable as a therapeutic or diagnostic target** due to its lack of coding potential and biological data. If the intended target is the functional small nuclear ribonucleoprotein polypeptide C (SNRPC)—not the pseudogene—see SNRPC for a functional gene involved in mRNA splicing[1]. SNRPCP15 is a pseudogene with no known function, disease association, or drug interaction[1]. It is not a therapeutic target; if the intent was to query a spliceosomal protein, a different gene name should be used.
