Zinc finger protein 962, pseudogene (ZNF962P)

Zinc finger protein 962, pseudogene (ZNF962P) is a predicted pseudogene belonging to the zinc finger protein family based on sequence similarity. Pseudogenes are genomic elements that closely resemble functional protein-coding genes but are generally non-functional due to mutations, truncations, or loss of regulatory regions. Zinc finger proteins are typically characterized by their finger-like structural motifs stabilized by zinc ions and are most often transcription factors involved in gene regulation; however, ZNF962P itself does not encode a functional protein and its biological role, if any, remains uncharacterized. It is not classified as a therapeutic target, nor associated with a validated biological or disease function
