AARS2 blocking peptide
AARS2 Immunizing Peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the class-II aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases play critical roles in mRNA translation by charging tRNAs with their cognate amino acids. The encoded protein is a mitochondrial enzyme that specifically aminoacylates alanyl-tRNA. Mutations in this gene are a cause of combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 8.

Uniprot Description
AARSL: Catalyzes the attachment of alanine to tRNA(Ala) in a two-step reaction: alanine is first activated by ATP to form Ala- AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of tRNA(Ala). Also edits incorrectly charged tRNA(Ala) via its editing domain. Defects in AARS2 are the cause of combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency type 8 (COXPD8). A mitochondrial disease characterized by a lethal infantile hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, generalized muscle dysfunction and some neurologic involvement. The liver is not affected. Belongs to the class-II aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family.

Product Notes
The AARS2 aars2 (Catalog #AAA427956) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AARS2 Immunizing Peptide reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. The amino acid sequence is listed below: C-QHRARQAE PVQK. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "AARS2, Blocking Peptide" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
