STRINGSTRING
STRING protein interaction network
Nodes:
Network nodes represent proteins
splice isoforms or post-translational modifications are collapsed, i.e. each node represents all the proteins produced by a single, protein-coding gene locus.
Node Color
colored nodes:
query proteins and first shell of interactors
white nodes:
second shell of interactors
Node Content
empty nodes:
proteins of unknown 3D structure
filled nodes:
a 3D structure is known or predicted
Edges:
Edges represent protein-protein associations
associations are meant to be specific and meaningful, i.e. proteins jointly contribute to a shared function; this does not necessarily mean they are physically binding to each other.
Known Interactions
from curated databases
experimentally determined
Predicted Interactions
gene neighborhood
gene fusions
gene co-occurrence
Others
textmining
co-expression
protein homology

VARS2Valine--tRNA ligase, mitochondrial; valyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial. (1093 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
LARS1
Leucine--tRNA ligase, cytoplasmic; Catalyzes the specific attachment of an amino acid to its cognate tRNA in a two step reaction: the amino acid (AA) is first activated by ATP to form AA-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of the tRNA. Exhibits a post-transfer editing activity to hydrolyze mischarged tRNAs.
   
 
 0.954
YARS1
Tyrosine--tRNA ligase, cytoplasmic, N-terminally processed; Catalyzes the attachment of tyrosine to tRNA(Tyr) in a two- step reaction: tyrosine is first activated by ATP to form Tyr-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of tRNA(Tyr); Belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family.
  
 
 0.947
AARS2
Alanine--tRNA ligase, mitochondrial; 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). Also edits incorrectly charged tRNA(Ala) via its editing domain. Belongs to the class-II aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family.
  
 
 0.937
RARS2
Probable arginine--tRNA ligase, mitochondrial; arginyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial.
  
  
 0.935
EPRS1
Bifunctional glutamate/proline--tRNA ligase; Multifunctional protein which is primarily part of the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase multienzyme complex, also know as multisynthetase complex, that catalyzes the attachment of the cognate amino acid to the corresponding tRNA in a two-step reaction: the amino acid is first activated by ATP to form a covalent intermediate with AMP and is then transferred to the acceptor end of the cognate tRNA. The phosphorylation of EPRS1, induced by interferon-gamma, dissociates the protein from the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase multienzyme complex and recruits it [...]

AARS1
Alanine--tRNA ligase, cytoplasmic; 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). Also edits incorrectly charged tRNA(Ala) via its editing domain. Belongs to the class-II aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family.

VARS1
Valine--tRNA ligase; valyl-tRNA synthetase 1; Belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family.
  
 
0.926
DARS2
Aspartate--tRNA ligase, mitochondrial; aspartyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial.
  
  
 0.916
KARS1
Lysine--tRNA ligase; Catalyzes the specific attachment of an amino acid to its cognate tRNA in a 2 step reaction: the amino acid (AA) is first activated by ATP to form AA-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of the tRNA. When secreted, acts as a signaling molecule that induces immune response through the activation of monocyte/macrophages. Catalyzes the synthesis of the signaling molecule diadenosine tetraphosphate (Ap4A), and thereby mediates disruption of the complex between HINT1 and MITF and the concomitant activation of MITF transcriptional activity.
   
  
 0.915
PARS2
Probable proline--tRNA ligase, mitochondrial; prolyl-tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial.
