MARS2 - methionyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial Gene
Also Known as MetRS; COXPD25; mtMetRS
Species: Homo sapiens
About MARS2
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 185 orthologues, 7 paralogues and is associated with 4 phenotypes.
Summary
This gene produces a mitochondrial methionyl-tRNA synthetase protein that is encoded by the nuclear genome and imported to the mitochondrion. This protein likely functions as a monomer and is predicted to localize to the mitochondrial matrix. Mutations in this gene are associated with the autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disease spastic ataxia-3 (SPAX3). [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2014]
