WEE1 homolog pseudogene (null)

The WEE1 homolog pseudogene, designated as ENSG00000264431, is a genomic sequence related to the WEE1 kinase gene, but it does not encode a functional protein. Unlike the canonical WEE1 kinase, which is a serine/threonine protein kinase regulating the cell cycle and is an established therapeutic target in oncology, pseudogenes like ENSG00000264431 have lost their protein-coding ability and generally have no direct biological function. The therapeutic relevance, disease role, and drug interactions pertain to the active WEE1 kinase rather than this pseudogene[2][3][6]. If structured information about an active target is required, refer to the canonical WEE1 kinase gene (e.g., ENSG00000117215), not to the pseudogene ENSG00000264431.
