Summary: Predicted to enable glycine-tRNA ligase activity. Acts upstream of or within swimming behavior; synaptic assembly at neuromuscular junction; and translation. Predicted to be active in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including anterior neural keel; central nervous system; digestive system; heart; and segmental plate. Used to study Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2D and autosomal dominant distal hereditary motor neuronopathy 5. Orthologous to human GARS1 (glycyl-tRNA synthetase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

Data indicate that dimerization is required for the dominant neurotoxicity of disease-associated GARS mutations and provide a rapid, tractable model for studying newly identified GARS variants for a role in human disease.

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.
