Reaction: asparagine + tRNA(Asn) + ATP => Asn-tRNA(Asn) + AMP + pyrophosphate
- in pathway: Mitochondrial tRNA aminoacylation
NARS2 (mitochondrial asparaginyl tRNA synthetase) catalyzes the reaction of asparagine, mitochondrial tRNA(Asn), and ATP to form Asn-tRNA(Asn), AMP, and pyrophosphate. The NARS2 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).
