Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 5859
Gene name Glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase 1
Gene symbol QARS1
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
GLNRSMSCCAPRO2195QARS
Chromosome 3
Chromosome location 3p21.31
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 prot
