Vomeronasal 1 receptor 107 pseudogene (VN1R107P)

**Vomeronasal 1 receptor 107 pseudogene (VN1R107P)** is a gene in the human genome identified as a pseudogene, meaning it does not encode a functional receptor protein[1]. The gene belongs to the vomeronasal type-1 receptor family by sequence homology, a class of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) that in other mammals typically detect pheromones. However, in humans, this gene is annotated as a pseudogene and is not believed to produce a functional protein. Therefore, it does not have known biological or disease roles, is not a therapeutic target, has no known interacting drugs, mechanisms of action, or biomarker uses, and presents no known specific safety concerns[1]. **Key clarifications:** - This is not a functional receptor but a pseudogene; the “P” suffix and database annotations confirm this[1]. - There is no evidence that this pseudogene encodes a protein or is involved in any therapeutic or disease process. - Functionally related proteins in other species are involved in chemical sensing, but in humans, pseudogene status means there is no known function or role.
