{"symbol":"EPRS","synonyms":["QARS","PIG32","QPRS","EARS","HLD15","GLUPRORS","PARS"],"name":"glutamyl-prolyl-tRNA synthetase","description":"Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are a class of enzymes that charge tRNAs with their cognate amino acids. The protein encoded by this gene is a multifunctional aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase that catalyzes the aminoacylation of glutamic acid and proline tRNA species. Alternative splicing has been observed for this gene, but the full-length nature and biological validity of the variant have not been determined.
