Gene: RARS1
Alternate names for this Gene: ArgRS|DALRD1|HLD9|RARS
Gene Summary: 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. Arginyl-tRNA synthetase belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 5
Location in Chromosome : 5q34
Description of this Gene: arginyl-tRNA synthetase 1
Type of Gene: protein-coding
