PARS2 encodes an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase that catalyzes the ligation of proline to mitochondrial prolyl-tRNA molecules. Diseases associated with PARS2 primarily affect the central nervous system, causing early infantile developmental epileptic encephalopathies (EIDEE; DEE75; MIM #618437) with infantile-onset neurodegeneration.
