MRPS31P5
Description
The MRPS31P5 (mitochondrial ribosomal protein S31 pseudogene 5) is a pseudo gene located on chromosome 13.
MRPS31P5 is a pseudogene located on chromosome 17. Pseudogenes are non-functional copies of functional genes that have accumulated mutations and are no longer transcribed or translated.
The MRPS31P5 gene is a pseudogene, meaning it is a non-functional copy of a functional gene. Pseudogenes often arise from gene duplication events and can be important in understanding gene evolution.
MRPS31P5 is also known as MRPS31P3.
