| 1342814 | FARS2 | phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial | This gene encodes a protein that transfers phenylalanine to its cognate tRNA. This protein localizes to the mitochondrion and plays a role in mitochondrial protein translation. Mutations in this gene can cause combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 14 (Alpers encephalopathy). Alternative spli cing results in multiple transcript variants.

| 1553213 | Fars2 | phenylalanine-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial | Predicted to enable phenylalanine-tRNA ligase activity and tRNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in phenylalanyl-tRNA aminoacylation and tRNA processing. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; integumental system; nervous system; respirat ory system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 14 and hereditary spastic paraplegia 77. Orthologous to human FARS2 (phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial).
