Ubiquitin specific peptidase 24 pseudogene 1 (USP24P1)

Ubiquitin specific peptidase 24 pseudogene 1 (USP24P1) is a non-protein-coding pseudogene related to the ubiquitin specific peptidase family, specifically resembling the functional gene USP24. Pseudogenes like USP24P1 generally arise from gene duplication or retrotransposition events and usually lack the sequences required for protein expression. As a result, they do not encode active proteins or participate in typical molecular functions associated with enzymes, receptors, or other drug targets. No known biological, clinical, or therapeutic relevance has been ascribed to USP24P1, and it should not be confused with functional genes that are active drug targets. This information indicates USP24P1 should not be selected as a therapeutic target or used for disease/biomarker research unless further evidence emerges affecting its annotation. If you meant the functional homolog, consider searching for "Ubiquitin specific peptidase 24 (USP24)" instead.
