Background Information
TARS2 (mitochondrial (mt) threonyl-tRNA synthetase 2) is a class-II aminoacyl tRNA synthetase. Its canonical role is to ligate threonine to its cognate tRNA molecule during mitochondrial protein translation. TARS2 is required for the activation of mTORC1, a master regulator of cell growth and proliferation (PMID: 39509107, 37454282). TARS2 mainly localizes to mitochondria because of its N-terminal mitochondrial targeting sequence (MTS) (PMID: 33340489).

Reviews
What customers say
One reviewer (Vera S.) tested this antibody by Western Blot on fibroblast samples at a 1:1000 dilution, rating it 3 out of 5. She reported that the signal was quite weak at that dilution but the antibody did work overall. She also noted some unspecific binding to the protein ladder.
The reviews below have been submitted by verified Proteintech customers who received an incentive for providing their feedback.
Vera (Verified Customer) (07-14-2026) | The antibody shows quite a weak signal at a dilution of 1:1000 but it does work, there is some unspecific binding to the ladder.
