EGFEM1P
Description
The EGFEM1P (EGF like and EMI domain containing 1, pseudogene) is a pseudo gene located on chromosome 3.
EGFEM1P is a pseudogene located on chromosome 1. Pseudogenes are inactive copies of genes that have lost their functionality. EGFEM1P is similar in sequence to the active gene EGFEM1, which is involved in cell signaling and extracellular matrix interactions. However, due to mutations, EGFEM1P is unable to produce a functional protein.
The exact function of EGFEM1P is currently unknown. It's thought to be involved in cell signaling pathways, possibly through interaction with other proteins. However, further research is needed to fully understand its role.
EGFEM1P is also known as C3orf50, NCRNA00259.
