    Summary
    Enables leucine-tRNA ligase activity. Involved in leucyl-tRNA aminoacylation. Part of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase multienzyme complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; sensory organ; and skeleton. 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, Apr 2022]

    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.
