QuickView for MARS (gene)

Gene Symbol:

MARS Homo sapiens

Full name:

methionyl-tRNA synthetase

Synonyms:

CMT2U, ILFS2, ILLD, METRS, MRS, MTRNS, SPG70, methionine--tRNA ligase, cytoplasmic, cytosolic methionyl-tRNA synthetase

Genomic Location:

Chr 12: 56168118-56196700

Description:

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 complex and catalyzes the ligation of methionine to tRNA molecules.
