Primary Identifier | MGI:106314 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 15 | NCBI Gene Number | 110960 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables threonine-tRNA ligase activity. Involved in threonyl-tRNA aminoacylation. Located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; integumental system; liver; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in nonphotosensitive trichothiodystrophy 7. Orthologous to human TARS1 (threonyl-tRNA synthetase 1). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mice exhibit prenatal lethality. [provided by MGI curators] |
