Identification
NameGlycyl-tRNA synthetase 2
Synonyms
  • Diadenosine tetraphosphate synthetase
  • AP-4-A synthetase
  • Glycine--tRNA ligase 2
  • GlyRS 2
  • GlyRS2
Gene NameGRS2
Enzyme Class
Biological Properties
General FunctionInvolved in nucleotide binding
Specific FunctionCatalyzes the attachment of glycine to tRNA(Gly). Is also able produce diadenosine tetraphosphate (Ap4A), a universal pleiotropic signaling molecule needed for cell regulation pathways, by direct condensation of 2 ATPs
