Summary Summary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
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. The encoded protein is a component of the multi-tRNA synthetase co

Protein name Methionine--tRNA ligase, cytoplasmic (EC 6.1.1.10) (Methionyl-tRNA synthetase) (MetRS)
Protein function Catalyzes the specific attachment of an amino acid to its cognate tRNA in a 2 step reaction: the amino acid (AA) is first activated by ATP to form AA-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of the tRNA (PubMed:11714285). Plays a role in the
