Predicted to enable ATP binding activity and tryptophan-tRNA ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in tryptophanyl-tRNA aminoacylation. Predicted to be part of mitochondrial small ribosomal subunit. Is an ortholog of C. elegans
prmt-5. In C. elegans,
prmt-5 is involved in several processes, including intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway in response to DNA damage; negative regulation of DNA damage response, signal transduction by
p53 class mediator; and response to odorant.
