{"symbol":"TARS","synonyms":["ThrRS"],"name":"threonyl-tRNA synthetase","description":"Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases catalyze the aminoacylation of tRNA by their cognate amino acid. Because of their central role in linking amino acids with nucleotide triplets contained in tRNAs, aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are thought to be among the first proteins that appeared in evolution. Threonyl-tRNA synthetase belongs to the class-II aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]","ncbiEntrezGeneId":6897,"ncbiEntrezGeneUrl":"http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/6897","proteins":[{"symbol":"SYTC_HUMAN","href":"/api/1.0/protein/SYTC_HUMAN"}],"hgncRootFamilies":[{"name":"Aminoacyl tRNA synthetases","href":"/api/1.0/gene_family/Aminoacyl+tRNA+synthetases"}]}
