EPRS Antibody / Proline--tRNA ligase

Bifunctional aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the EPRS1 gene. 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.
