Von Willebrand factor A domain containing 8 pseudogene 1 (VWA8P1)

**Von Willebrand factor A domain containing 8 pseudogene 1 (VWA8P1)** is a predicted **pseudogene** in the human genome. Pseudogenes are genomic DNA sequences similar to normal genes but generally non-functional; they usually lack the ability to encode a functional protein due to accumulated disablements[5][2]. VWA8P1 is annotated as a pseudogene related to the VWA8 gene, which encodes a mitochondrial AAA+ ATPase with a Von Willebrand factor A (vWA) domain, but there is no evidence that VWA8P1 acts as a therapeutic target, is biologically functional, expressed as RNA, or encodes a protein in humans[5][3]. There is no evidence implicating VWA8P1 in human disease biology, drug interaction, or use as a clinical biomarker. The entry "VWA8P1" is not a functional protein-coding gene or receptor, and there is no indication it should be considered a therapeutic target[5][2].
