EARS2 (mitochondrial glutamyl tRNA synthetase) catalyzes the reaction of glutamate, mitochondrial tRNA(Glu), and ATP to form Glu-tRNA(Glu), AMP, and pyrophosphate. The EARS2 gene has been identified by computational analysis of the human genome sequence; its function has been inferred from those of the biochemically characterized mitochondrial aspartyl and tyrosyl tRNA synthetases (Bonnefond et al. 2005).
