Entrez Gene summary for EARS2 Gene:

Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are a class of enzymes that charge tRNAs with their cognate amino acids. The protein

encoded by this gene belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family and catalyzes the attachment of

glutamate to tRNA(Glu). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. (provided by RefSeq, Sep

2010)

GeneCards Summary for EARS2 Gene:

EARS2 (glutamyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial) is a protein-coding gene. Diseases associated with EARS2 include combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 12, and anisometropia. GO annotations related to this gene include glutamate-tRNA(Gln) ligase activity and tRNA binding.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: SYEM_HUMAN, Q5JPH6

Function: Catalyzes the attachment of glutamate to tRNA(Glu) in a two-step reaction: glutamate is first activated

by ATP to form Glu-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of tRNA(Glu) (By similarity)

Combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 12 (COXPD12) [MIM:614924]: An autosomal recessive,

mitochondrial, neurologic disorder characterized by onset in infancy of hypotonia and delayed psychomotor

development, or early developmental regression, associated with T2-weighted hyperintensities in the deep cerebral

white matter, brainstem, and cerebellar white matter. Serum lactate is increased due to a defect in mitochondrial

respiration. There are 2 main phenotypic groups: those with a milder disease course and some recovery of skills

after age 2 years, and those with a severe disease course resulting in marked disability. Note=The disease is

caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry
