Summary
Predicted to enable valine-tRNA ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in valyl-tRNA aminoacylation. Predicted to act upstream of or within translation. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; respiratory system; and tail. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 20. Orthologous to human VARS2 (valyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
