Gene information for GARS (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID2617
Official gene symbolGARS
Full nameglycyl-tRNA synthetase
Aliases,CMT2D,DSMAV,GlyRS,HMN5,SMAD1,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes glycyl-tRNA synthetase, one of the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases that charge tRNAs with their cognate amino acids. The encoded enzyme is an (alpha)2 dimer which belongs to the class II family of tRNA synthetases. It has been shown to be a target of autoantibodies in the human autoimmune diseases, polymyositis or dermatomyositis. [provided by RefSeq]
