Primary Identifier | MGI:1919191 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 8 | NCBI Gene Number | 71941 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable ATP binding activity and cysteine-tRNA ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in cysteinyl-tRNA aminoacylation. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in metanephros. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 27. Orthologous to human CARS2 (cysteinyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for an ENU-induced allele develop induced hyperactivity followed by head bobbing and tremors. [provided by MGI curators] |
