Multisynthetase complex auxiliary component p38
# Multisynthetase complex auxiliary component p38

Aminoacyl tRNA synthetase complex-interacting multifunctional protein 2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the AIMP2 gene.

## Function

The JTV1 gene is located on chromosome 7p22 flanked by two genes, HRI and PMS2. JTV1 and HRI overlap slightly and are arranged in a tail-to-tail fashion. JTV1 and PMS2 are separated by approximately 200 base pairs and are arranged head-to-head. JTV1 is transcribed in the opposite direction compared to HRI and PMS2. The function of the JTV1 gene product is unknown.

## Interactions

Multisynthetase complex auxiliary component p38 has been shown to interact with Parkin (ligase), P53 and KARS.
