| ncRNA Symbol: | IARS2 | | Full Name: | isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial | | Category: | mRNA | | Synonyms: | CAGSSS|ILERS | | Chromosome: | chr1 | | Strand: | + | | Coordinate: | | Start Site(bp): | 220094102 | End Site(bp): | 220148041 | | | Gene Summary: | Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases catalyze the aminoacylation of tRNA by their cognate amino acid. Because of their central role in linking amino acids with nucleotide triplets contained in tRNAS, aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are thought to be among the first proteins that appeared in evolution. Two forms of isoleucine-tRNA synthetase exist, a cytoplasmic form and a mitochondrial form. This gene encodes the mitochondrial isoleucine-tRNA synthetase which belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2014] | | External Links: | |
