| Entrez gene ID | 2617 |
| Official gene symbol | GARS |
| Full name | glycyl-tRNA synthetase |
| Aliases | ,CMT2D,DSMAV,GlyRS,HMN5,SMAD1, |
| Gene summary | This 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] |
