Sars Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable several functions, including aminoacyl-tRNA ligase activity; protein homodimerization activity; and tRNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including negative regulation of angiogenesis; negative regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process; and translation. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; early conceptus; exocrine system; and genitourinary system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in intellectual disability. Orthologous to human SARS1 (seryl-tRNA synthetase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

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 Sars often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
