摘要

随着高通量技术的发展，非编码 RNA（ncRNA）作为各种生物功能的主调控因子的关键作用日益明显。假基因一直被认为没有功能，被贴上了 "垃圾 DNA "的标签，但它可以转录成 RNA，这表明它具有与 ncRNA 类似的潜在作用。最近的研究表明，一些假基因可以编码功能性肽或蛋白质。越来越多的证据表明，假基因及其衍生的功能分子参与了各种生物过程，并可作为癌症的预后标志物。本综述全面总结并讨论了目前对假基因及其衍生分子在生物功能中的功能作用的认识。

Pseudogene: Relevant or Irrelevant?

With the advancement of high-throughput technologies, the pivotal role of non-coding RNA (ncRNA) as a master regulator of various biological functions has become increasingly apparent. Historically considered non-functional and labeled as "junk DNA," pseudogenes can be transcribed into RNA, indicating a potential role similar to ncRNAs. Recent research suggests that some pseudogenes can encode functional peptides or proteins. A growing body of evidence has revealed that pseudogenes and their derived functional molecules are involved in various biological processes and can serve as prognostic markers in cancers. This review comprehensively summarizes and discusses the current understanding of the functional roles of pseudogenes and their derived molecules in biological functions.

期刊介绍： Biomedical Journal publishes 6 peer-reviewed issues per year in all fields of clinical and biomedical sciences for an internationally diverse authorship. Unlike most open access journals, which are free to readers but not authors, Biomedical Journal does not charge for subscription, submission, processing or publication of manuscripts, nor for color reproduction of photographs. Clinical studies, accounts of clinical trials, biomarker studies, and characterization of human pathogens are within the scope of the journal, as well as basic studies in model species such as Escherichia coli, Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila melanogaster, and Mus musculus revealing the function of molecules, cells, and tissues relevant for human health. However, articles on other species can be published if they contribute to our understanding of basic mechanisms of biology. A highly-cited international editorial board assures timely publication of manuscripts. Reviews on recent progress in biomedical sciences are commissioned by the editors.
