NARS2 - asparaginyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial Gene
Also Known as SLM5; asnRS; DFNB94
Species: Homo sapiens
About NARS2
This gene has 36 transcripts (splice variants), 193 orthologues, 4 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in kidney (RPKM 4.7), thyroid (RPKM 3.7) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a putative member of the class II family of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. These Enzymes play a critical role in protein biosynthesis by charging tRNAs with their cognate Amino acids. This protein is encoded by the nuclear genome but is likely to be imported to the mitochondrion where it is thought to catalyze the ligation of asparagine to tRNA molecules. Mutations in this gene have been associated with combined Oxidative Phosphorylation deficiency 24 (COXPD24). [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2015]
