ZCCHC10 pseudogene 1 (ZCCHC10P1)

**ZCCHC10 pseudogene 1** (abbreviated as ZCCHC10P1) is classified by the HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee as a pseudogene[3][7]. Pseudogenes are non-functional sequences of genomic DNA originally derived from functional genes but which have lost their protein-coding ability or are otherwise no longer expressed in the cell[2][11]. ZCCHC10P1 does not encode a functional protein and is not recognized as a therapeutic or biological target such as a receptor, enzyme, or signaling molecule. Instead, it is the non-functional genomic counterpart of the functional gene **ZCCHC10**, which is a protein-coding gene with potential tumor suppressor roles, especially in the context of p53 stabilization[1][13][15][18]. No aliases, molecular functions, pathways, drug interactions, disease roles, or biomarkers are described for ZCCHC10P1 in the scientific literature or major gene databases[3][7]. **Important note:** This entry (ZCCHC10P1) is not a functional protein-coding gene, nor is it a recognized drug target. Most of the relevant disease and functional information pertains instead to the parental gene **ZCCHC10**, not to the pseudogene ZCCHC10P1[3][7][13].
