MARS2 - methionyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial Gene

Also Known as MetRS; COXPD25; mtMetRS

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 92935

About MARS2

Cytogenetic location: 2q33.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 2:197,705,369-197,708,395 (from NCBI)

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]
