prs-1 encodes a predicted cytoplasmic prolyl-tRNA synthetase (ProRS), a class II aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase that catalyzes the attachment of proline to its cognate tRNA and is thus required for protein biosynthesis; PRS-1 is required for embryonic, germline, and postembryonic development.
Predicted to enable proline-tRNA ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in prolyl-tRNA aminoacylation. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase multienzyme complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypomyelinating leukodystrophy 15. Is an ortholog of human EPRS1 (glutamyl-prolyl-tRNA synthetase 1).
Connection made from predicted gene which has synthetase Pfam domain similarity. [sdm 12/01]

Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
