Description
Methionyl-tRNA synthetase; forms a complex with glutamyl-tRNA synthetase (Gus1p) and Arc1p, which increases the catalytic efficiency of both tRNA synthetases; also has a role in nuclear export of tRNAs; mutations in human ortholog MARS are associated with pediatric pulmonary alveolar proteinosis [Source:SGD;Acc:S000003496]
