These YARS variants occur in the catalytic domain and the C-terminal domain, respectively. Mutations in YARS have been previously associated with an autosomal dominant form of Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT); our findings suggest the disease spectrum associated with YARS dysregulation is broader than peripheral neuropathy. | A novel multisystem disease associated with recessive mutations in the tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase (YARS) gene.

Studied the structural effect of three Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease-causing mutations in tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase. The mutations do not induce changes in protein secondary structures, or shared effects on oligomerization state and stability. However, all mutations provide access to a surface masked in the wild-type enzyme, and that access correlates with protein misinteraction. | Alternative stable conformation capable of protein misinteraction links tRNA synthetase to peripheral neuropathy.
