Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.5.0)
Enables scaffold protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including ERK1 and ERK2 cascade; diadenosine tetraphosphate biosynthetic process; and lysyl-tRNA aminoacylation. Located in mitochondrion. Part of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase multienzyme complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; cranium; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease recessive intermediate B and autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness 89.
