Summary
Predicted to enable several functions, including ATP binding activity; cysteine-tRNA ligase activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Predicted to be involved in cysteinyl-tRNA aminoacylation. Predicted to act upstream of or within translation. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human CARS1 (cysteinyl-tRNA synthetase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

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.

    See identical proteins and their annotated locations for NP_001239522.1

    Status: VALIDATED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (2) lacks an alternate, in-frame, exon in the 5' coding region, compared to variant 1. The resulting protein (isoform 2) is shorter when it is compared to isoform 1.
