Abstract excerpt
Seryl-tRNA synthetase 2 (SARS2) encodes the enzyme responsible for charging tRNA with serine in the mitochondria. SARS2 has been associated with a spectrum of recessive diseases including HUPRA syndrome and progressive spastic paresis. Previous studies showed that pathogenic SARS2 variants cause decreased tRNA charging; however, the mechanism by which specific variants lead to distinct recessive phenotypes has...
