N-acetylaspartate 221-224 solute carrier family 13 member 3 Homo sapiens 96-103 30828585-2 2019 Although important in joining tRNAs to their cognate amino acids, AIMP1 has several other functions including axonal growth, cytokine activity, and interactions with N-acetylaspartic acid in ribosomal tRNA synthetase complexes. N-acetylaspartate 166-187 aminoacyl tRNA synthetase complex interacting multifunctional protein 1 Homo sapiens 66-71 30828585-6 2019 In the absence of whole exome sequencing, we propose that decreased N-acetylaspartic acid peaks on magnetic resonance spectroscopy could act as a biomarker for AIMP1 mutations.
