Cancer tissues showed weak cytoplasmic staining or were negative. Several skin cancers and a few cases of lymphomas, cervical, endometrial and urothelial cancers showed moderate cytoplasmic immunoreactivity.
Most cancer cells displayed moderate to strong cytoplasmic immunoreactivity. A few cases of renal cancers were weakly stained or negative.

Description
Glutamyl-prolyl-tRNA synthetase (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
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. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
