Summary
EPRS1 (glutamyl-prolyl-tRNA synthetase 1, HGNC:3418) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 1q41, encoding Bifunctional glutamate/proline–tRNA ligase (P07814). Multifunctional protein which primarily functions within the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase multienzyme complex, also known as multisynthetase complex. It is a common-essential gene (DepMap: required in 99.8% of cancer cell lines).
Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are a class of enzymes that charge tRNAs with their cognate amino acids. The protein encoded by this gene is a multifunctional aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase that catalyzes the aminoacylation of glutamic acid and proline tRNA species. Alternative splicing has been observed for this gene, but the full-length nature and biological validity of the variant have not been determined.

Function. Multifunctional protein which primarily functions within the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase multienzyme complex, also known as multisynthetase complex. Within the complex it catalyzes the attachment of both L-glutamate and L-proline to their cognate tRNAs in a two-step reaction where the amino acid is first activated by ATP to form a covalent intermediate with AMP. Subsequently, the activated amino acid is transferred to the acceptor end of the cognate tRNA to form L-glutamyl-tRNA(Glu) and L-prolyl-tRNA(Pro). Upon interferon-gamma stimulation, EPRS1 undergoes phosphorylation, causing its dissociation from the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase multienzyme complex. It is recruited to form the GAIT complex, which binds to stem loop-containing GAIT elements found in the 3’-UTR of various inflammatory mRNAs, such as ceruloplasmin. The GAIT complex inhibits the translation of these mRNAs, allowing interferon-gamma to redirect the function of EPRS1 from protein synthesis to translation inhibition in specific cell contexts. Furthermore, it can function as a downstream effector in the mTORC1 signaling pathway, by promoting the translocation of SLC27A1 from the cytoplasm to the plasma membrane where it mediates the uptake of long-chain fatty acid by adipocytes. Thereby, EPRS1 also plays a role in fat metabolism and more indirectly influences lifespan.
Subunit / interactions. Homodimer. Part of the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase multienzyme complex, also know as multisynthetase complex (MSC), that is composed of the tRNA ligases for Arg (RARS1), Asp (DARS1), Gln (QARS1), Ile (IARS1), Leu (LARS1), Lys (KARS1), Met (MARS1) the bifunctional ligase for Glu and Pro (EPRS1) and the auxiliary subunits AIMP1/p43, AIMP2/p38 and EEF1E1/p18. Forms a linear complex that contains MARS1, EEF1E1, EPRS1 and AIMP2 that is at the core of the multisubunit complex. Interacts with TARS3. Interacts with DUS2L. Component of the GAIT complex which is composed of EPRS1, RPL13A and GAPDH. For human, the complex assembly seems to be a two-step process in which EPRS1 first associates with SYNCRIP to form a pre-GAIT complex which is deficient in GAIT element binding. Interacts (phosphorylated at Ser-999) with SLC27A1; mediates the translocation of SLC27A1 from the cytoplasm to the plasma membrane thereby increasing the uptake of long-chain fatty acids.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Cytosol. Membrane.
Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylated at Ser-886 by CDK5. Phosphorylated at Ser-999 by RPS6KB1; triggers EPRS1 release from the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase multienzyme complex. In monocytes, the IFN-gamma-induced sequential phosphorylation at Ser-886 and Ser-999 releases EPRS1 from the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase multienzyme complex, allowing its association with the GAIT complex. Phosphorylation at Ser-999 is specifically required for the RPL13A-mediated interaction of the GAIT complex with eIF4G. Phosphorylation at Ser-999 by RPS6KB1, is also induced by insulin through activation of the mTORC1 signaling pathway and promotes the interaction of EPRS1 with SLC27A1.
Disease relevance. Leukodystrophy, hypomyelinating, 15 (HLD15) [MIM:617951] An autosomal recessive disorder characterized by hypomyelinating leukodystrophy with thinning of the corpus callosum. Clinical features include motor and cognitive impairment appearing in the first or second decade of life, dystonia, ataxia, spasticity, and dysphagia. Most patients develop severe optic atrophy, and some have hearing loss. The disease may be caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Activity regulation. Inhibited by halofuginone. Can be activated by azetidine-2-carboxylic acid (Aze), a non-proteinogenic amino acids found in plants that mimics both proline and alanine, leading to misincorporation of Aze into proline positions of proteins.
Domain organisation. The WHEP-TRS domains are involved in RNA binding.
Similarity. In the N-terminal section; belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. Glutamate–tRNA ligase type 2 subfamily. In the C-terminal section; belongs to the class-II aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family.

Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 187 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
