“…In this study, we further show that GlyRS modulates mRNA expresssion of the mTOR‐S6K1/4EBP1 signaling; these results are in agreement with our previous reports that extracellular stimuli such as Met and estrogen trigger GlyRS nuclear localization in BMEC (Huang et al, ; Lu et al, ). In recent years, many aaRSs have been found to be localized in the nucleus and regulated gene expression beyond their aminoacylation roles (Fang & Guo, ; Shi, Wei, & Yang, ). For examples, a unique motif appended to SerRS in species with closed circulatory systems harbors a robust nuclear leading sequence (NLS) (Xu et al, ); under stress conditions, TyrRS discloses its NLS and translocates to the nucleus to induce survival genes (Fu, Xu, Shi, Wei, & Yang, ); LysRS phosphorylation creates steric clashes at the domain interface and disrupts its binding grooves for p38/AIMP2, releasing LysRS for nuclear translocation (Ofir‐Birin et al, ).…”
