R74.1	SMap	S_parent	Sequence	SUPERLINK_CB_IIIL
	Chromosome	III
	Identity (5)
	Gene_info	Gene_class	lrs
		GO_term (8)
		Contained_in_operon	CEOP3160
		Structured_description	Provisional_description	lrs-1 encodes a predicted cytoplasmic leucyl-tRNA synthetase (LeuRS), a class I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase that catalyzes the attachment of leucine to its cognate tRNA and is thus required for protein biosynthesis; LRS-1 activity is required for embryonic, larval, and germline development, as well as normal body morphology and rates of postembryonic growth.
