TVP23C pseudogene 1 (TVP23CP1)

TVP23C pseudogene 1 (TVP23CP1) is a human pseudogene that shares high sequence similarity with the functional trans-Golgi network vesicle protein 23 homolog C gene (TVP23C). Pseudogenes like TVP23CP1 do not encode functional proteins due to disabling mutations or truncations but can exert regulatory effects at the RNA level, potentially influencing gene expression through mechanisms such as acting as competing endogenous RNAs or affecting chromatin structure. The biological and clinical significance of most pseudogenes is not fully established, and there is currently no evidence that TVP23CP1 has a direct role in disease or is a target for therapeutics[1][2].
