ZFP64 zinc finger protein pseudogene 1 (ZFP64P1)

ZFP64 zinc finger protein pseudogene 1 (ZFP64P1) is classified as a pseudogene in Homo sapiens. As a pseudogene, it is an inactive genomic DNA sequence resembling the functional ZFP64 zinc finger protein gene but does not encode a functional protein. ZFP64P1 is not considered a therapeutic target, as it does not produce a functional protein product and has no established role in human disease or physiology. The alias "ZNF405P" is also used to refer to this gene. ZFP64P1 should not be confused with the functional ZFP64 gene, which encodes a zinc finger transcription factor involved in DNA and metal ion binding and may contribute to mesenchymal cell differentiation. As a pseudogene, ZFP64P1 is not classified within major gene product classes like receptors, enzymes, ion channels, or transcription factors. No associated biological functions, disease roles, drug interactions, mechanisms of action, biomarkers, or known safety concerns are reported, reflecting its status as a pseudogene. If you require information about the functional gene ZFP64 (rather than its pseudogene), please specify.
