glycyl-tRNA synthetase 1

The GARS1 gene provides instructions for making an enzyme called glycine—tRNA ligase. This enzyme is found in all cell types and plays an important role in the production of proteins. During protein production, protein building blocks (amino acids) are connected together in a specific order, creating a chain of amino acids. Glycine—tRNA ligase helps add the amino acid glycine at the proper place in a protein's chain of amino acids.
