Summary
Predicted to enable glutamate-tRNA ligase activity and glutamate-tRNA(Gln) ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in glutamyl-tRNA aminoacylation and tRNA aminoacylation for mitochondrial protein translation. Predicted to be active in mitochondrion. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 12. Orthologous to human EARS2 (glutamyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
