Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 124454
Gene name Glutamyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial
Gene symbol EARS2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
COXPD12MSE1gluRSmtGlnRSmtGluRS
Chromosome 16
Chromosome location 16p12.2
Summary This gene encodes a member of the class I 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
