Gatc Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable ATP binding activity and glutaminyl-tRNA synthase (glutamine-hydrolyzing) activity. Predicted to be involved in glutaminyl-tRNAGln biosynthesis via transamidation and mitochondrial translation. Located in mitochondrion. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 42. Orthologous to human GATC (glutamyl-tRNA amidotransferase subunit C).

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Gatc often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
