Summary
Enables tRNA binding activity. Involved in selenocysteine incorporation. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; limb; musculoskeletal system; and respiratory system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 2D. Orthologous to human SEPSECS (Sep (O-phosphoserine) tRNA:Sec (selenocysteine) tRNA synthase).

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.
