RNF216P1
Description
The RNF216P1 (ring finger protein 216 pseudogene 1) is a pseudo gene located on chromosome 7.
RNF216P1 is a pseudogene located on chromosome 17. It is a non-coding copy of the functional RNF216 gene, which encodes an E3 ubiquitin ligase. Pseudogenes are often considered to be evolutionary remnants of functional genes. While they do not produce functional proteins, they may play a role in regulating the expression of the functional gene.
The function of the RNF216P1 gene is not yet fully understood. It is a pseudogene, meaning it is a non-functional copy of a functional gene. However, it may play a role in regulating the expression of the functional RNF216 gene.
RNF216P1 is also known as RNF216L, hCG2040556.
