Anti-RARS2 Antibody Picoband® PE Vervoeging

This nuclear gene encodes a protein that localizes to the mitochondria, where it catalyzes the transfer of L-arginine to its cognate tRNA, an important step in translation of mitochondrially-encoded proteins. Defects in this gene are a cause of pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 6 (PCH6) . Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
