USP9Y pseudogene 9 (USP9YP9)

"USP9Y pseudogene 9" (USP9YP9) refers to a pseudogene related to the gene for ubiquitin specific peptidase 9, Y-linked (USP9Y). As a pseudogene, USP9YP9 does not encode a functional protein and is not considered a therapeutic target, receptor, enzyme, or related molecule. The canonical protein-coding gene, USP9Y, is an active deubiquitinase involved in spermatogenesis[3][4][6], but pseudogenes such as USP9YP9 are generally non-functional and are not included in gene databases as protein-coding or disease-associated genes[2][5]. There is no evidence supporting USP9YP9 as a drug target, therapeutic entity, biomarker, or participant in biological or disease processes. The existence of multiple USP9Y pseudogenes is recognized, and USP9YP9 likely refers to a genomic sequence homologous to USP9Y but lacking coding potential and biological/research/clinical significance[2][5]. This entry is therefore incorrect as a therapeutic or functional molecular target; the correct entity is "ubiquitin specific peptidase 9 Y-linked" (USP9Y).
