USP12 pseudogene 2 (USP12P2)

USP12 pseudogene 2 (USP12P2) is a pseudogene annotated as related to the USP12 gene, which encodes Ubiquitin Specific Peptidase 12, a cysteine-type deubiquitinase enzyme involved in several cellular processes such as immune response, cell cycle regulation, and tumorigenesis. However, USP12P2 itself does not encode a functional enzyme or protein and is not known to participate in biological pathways, disease mechanisms, or therapeutic interventions. There is no evidence of USP12P2 acting as a receptor, enzyme, transporter, transcription factor, or other molecular target in human pathology or pharmacology. Accordingly, USP12P2 is not considered a therapeutic target. Curation caution: Ensure queries about USP12P2 are not conflated with USP12, which is an active protein-coding gene and valid therapeutic target.
