The GARS1 gene provides instructions for making an enzyme called glycine—tRNA ligase. This enzyme is found in all cell types and plays an important role in the production of proteins. During protein production, protein building blocks (amino acids) are connected together in a specific order, creating a chain of amino acids. Glycine—tRNA ligase helps add the amino acid glycine at the proper place in a protein's chain of amino acids.

What is postherpetic neuralgia. Postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) is a nerve pain (neuralgia) that persists after the shingles rash has cleared. If the pain from shingles goes but then returns at a later date, this too is called PHN. Shingles is caused by the chickenpox (varicella-zoster) virus. After a chickenpox infection, the virus lies dormant in.
