Summary: Enables phenylalanine-tRNA ligase activity. Involved in phenylalanyl-tRNA aminoacylation. Predicted to be active in mitochondrion. Is expressed in dorsal pharyngeal muscle primordium; larval muscle cell; larval muscle system; somatic muscle primordium; and visceral muscle primordium. Used to study developmental and epileptic encephalopathy and hereditary spastic paraplegia 77. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 14 and hereditary spastic paraplegia 77. Orthologous to human FARS2 (phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
