Because of their central role in linking amino acids with nucleotide triplets contained in tRNAs, aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are thought to be among the first proteins that appeared in evolution. Threonyl-tRNA synthetase belongs to the class-II aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] Expression Ubiquitous expression in thyroid (RPKM 23.8), esophagus (RPKM 20.5) and 25 other tissues See more Orthologs mouse all
