UDP glucuronosyltransferase family 2 member B25, pseudogene (UGT2B25P)

UGT2B25P is a member of the UDP glucuronosyltransferase family but is a pseudogene, meaning it does not encode a functional protein and lacks catalytic activity. It is not considered a therapeutic target, and there are no known disease, functional roles, or drug interactions associated with this locus[1]. A *pseudogene* is a segment of DNA resembling a gene but is nonfunctional due to mutations or lack of regulatory elements. UGT2B25P is located within a cluster of similar genes and pseudogenes on chromosome 4, paralleling functional UGT family members such as UGT2B7 and UGT2B15, which are active phase II metabolism enzymes[2][3][4][5][6]. However, UGT2B25P itself does not encode any known functional protein, molecular pathway, or therapeutic relevance[1].
