About FARSA

Cytogenetic location: 19p13.13 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 19:12,922,479-12,933,711 (from NCBI)

This gene has 10 transcripts (splice variants), 199 orthologues, 2 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 24.2), lymph node (RPKM 16.8) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are a class of Enzymes that charge tRNAs with their cognate Amino acids. This gene encodes a product which is similar to the catalytic subunit of prokaryotic and Saccharomyces cerevisiae phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetases (PheRS). This gene product has been shown to be expressed in a tumor-selective and cell cycle stage- and differentiation-dependent manner, the first member of the tRNA synthetase gene family shown to exhibit this type of regulated expression [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
