Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases consist of a family of enzymes that catalyze the specific aminoacylation of tRNA by their cognate amino acid in the initial step of ribosome-dependent protein biosynthesis. Cytoplasmic CysRS (Cysteinyl-tRNA synthetase, cytoplasmic), also known as CARS, is a 748 amino acid member of the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase protein family. Cytoplasmic CysRS is a monomeric protein that binds one zinc ion per subunit for use as a cofactor. Cytoplasmic CysRS uses ATP to convert L-cysteine and tRNA(Cys) into ADP, a diphosphate and L-cysteinyl-tRNA(Cys). A chromosomal aberration of the gene that encodes Cytoplasmic CysRS is associated with inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors (IMTs). Cytoplasmic CysRS is expressed as two isoforms produced by alternative splicing events.
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE).
