EPRS
Bifunctional aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the EPRS gene.[5][6]
Gene
Alternative splicing has been observed for this gene, but the full-length nature and biological validity of the variant have not been determined.[6]
Function
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.[6]
Phosphorylation of EPRS is reported to be essential for the formation of GAIT (Gamma-interferon Activated Inhibitor of Translation) complex that regulates the translation of multiple genes in monocytes and macrophages.[7]
Interactions
EPRS has been shown to interact with POU2F1,[8] Heat shock protein 90kDa alpha (cytosolic), member A1[9] and IARS.[10]
