Alanine--tRNA ligase, cytoplasmic

BE0000294ProteinHumansAARS1

Catalyzes the attachment of alanine to tRNA(Ala) in a two-step reaction: alanine is first activated by ATP to form Ala-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of tRNA(Ala) (PubMed:27622773, PubMed:27911835, PubMed:28493438, PubMed:33909043). It is acted on by 1 drug in DrugBank.
