Gene Namecysteinyl-tRNA synthetase
Gene Symbol CARS
SynonymsCARS1; CYSRS; MGC:11246;
Alternate namescysteine--tRNA ligase, cytoplasmic; cysteine translase; cysteine tRNA ligase 1, cytoplasmic;
Chromosome11
Map Location11p15.5
EC Number6.1.1.16
SummaryThis gene encodes a class 1 aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase, cysteinyl-tRNA synthetase. Each of the twenty aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases catalyzes the aminoacylation of a specific tRNA or tRNA isoaccepting family with the cognate amino acid. This gene is one of several located near the imprinted gene domain on chromosome 11p15.5, an important tumor-suppressor gene region. Alterations in this region have been associated with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome, Wilms tumor, rhabdomyosarcoma, adrenocortical carcinoma, and lung, ovarian and breast cancers. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2010]
