Description

DUS1L encodes a member of the dihydrouridine synthase family, which catalyzes the conversion of uridine to dihydrouridine in tRNA molecules. This modification is important for tRNA stability and proper translation. The protein localizes to mitochondria and is involved in mitochondrial tRNA modification.
