What's a GeneRIF?

A phylogenetic analysis further showed that GRS1 and GRS2 are paralogues that arose from a gene duplication event relatively recently, with GRS1 being the predecessor.
Title: An insertion peptide in yeast glycyl-tRNA synthetase facilitates both productive docking and catalysis of cognate tRNAs.
GRS2 rescued the growth defect of a GRS1 knockout strain when expressed at 37 degrees C, but not at 30 degrees C. These results suggest that GRS2 is actually an inducible gene that may function to rescue the activity of GRS1 under stress conditions.
Title: Saccharomyces cerevisiae possesses a stress-inducible glycyl-tRNA synthetase gene.

NP_015406.1

EC 6.1.1.14

Glycine-tRNA synthetase, not expressed under normal growth conditions; expression is induced under heat, oxidative, pH, or ethanol stress conditions; more stable than the major glycine-tRNA synthetase Grs1p at 37 deg C; GRS2 has a paralog, GRS1, that arose from the whole genome duplication
