gene: rars-2 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable arginine-tRNA ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in arginyl-tRNA aminoacylation and mitochondrial translation. Predicted to be located in mitochondrion. Expressed in body wall musculature and pharynx. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 6. Is an ortholog of human RARS2 (arginyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial).
