TVP23C pseudogene 3 (TVP23CP3)

TVP23C pseudogene 3 (TVP23CP3) is a human pseudogene located on chromosome 3 (chr3:183462851-183463201, hg38). It is designated as a pseudogene due to its sequence similarity to the functional TVP23C gene (Trans-Golgi Network Vesicle Protein 23 Homolog C), but it does not encode a functional protein nor possess any established biological or disease-related function. Pseudogenes are generally nonfunctional genomic elements that arise from duplication or retrotransposition events and lack coding potential, although some may have roles in gene regulation; there is currently no evidence for such a function for TVP23CP3. This query appears to refer to a pseudogene, not a protein, receptor, enzyme, or otherwise druggable or regulatory molecular target. Pseudogenes like TVP23CP3 are not routinely considered in pharmacological or biomedical target lists unless specifically studied for regulatory functions (which is not the case here, per current public databases). The main functional gene related by sequence is TVP23C, which is indeed involved in vesicle-mediated transport, but TVP23CP3 itself does not encode a functional product.
