Summary: Predicted to enable several functions, including bis(5'-nucleosyl)-tetraphosphatase (asymmetrical) activity; glycine-tRNA ligase activity; and identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in diadenosine tetraphosphate biosynthetic process and mitochondrial glycyl-tRNA aminoacylation. Predicted to act upstream of or within glycyl-tRNA aminoacylation. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including axon; extracellular exosome; and secretory granule. Predicted to be active in mitochondrion. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2D and autosomal dominant distal hereditary motor neuronopathy 5. Orthologous to human GARS1 (glycyl-tRNA synthetase 1).

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.
