Transcription factor A, mitochondrial pseudogene (null)

Transcription factor A, mitochondrial pseudogene (ENSG00000219784) is a human pseudogene related to the active gene TFAM, which encodes mitochondrial transcription factor A, a protein essential for mitochondrial DNA transcription and maintenance[1][3][9]. This pseudogene does not code for a functional protein, has no confirmed biological function, no role in disease, and is not targeted by therapeutic drugs. Occasionally, pseudogenes may have minor regulatory roles at the RNA level, but no such function has been established for this specific pseudogene[1][6]. It should not be confused with the functional, protein-coding gene TFAM (ENSG00000108064), which is biologically and clinically relevant[3][9].
