In this study, we identify leucyl-tRNA synthetase (LARS) as a breast tumor suppressor. To identify the mechanism underlying LARS-mediated breast tumor suppression, we conducted TMT-proteomics in PyMT mouse tumors with monoallelic genetic deletion of LARS in the mammary tumor compartment. The analyses implicate LARS as a regulator of leucine-rich protein translation resulting in downregulation of candidate leucine-rich tumor suppressor genes.
