Predicted to enable tryptophan-tRNA ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in tryptophanyl-tRNA aminoacylation. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in distal hereditary motor neuronopathy type 9. Is an ortholog of human WARS1 (tryptophanyl-tRNA synthetase 1).
Connection made from predicted gene which has synthetase Pfam domain similarity. [sdm 12/01]
dl1 : probably cytoplasmic
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.
