    Summary
    Predicted to enable leucine-tRNA ligase activity. Involved in wound healing. Part of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase multienzyme complex. Is expressed in adult head. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in infantile liver failure syndrome 1. Orthologous to human LARS1 (leucyl-tRNA synthetase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]
