- | + | [https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/DGCR8_HUMAN DGCR8_HUMAN] Component of the microprocessor complex that acts as a RNA- and heme-binding protein that is involved in the initial step of microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis. Component of the microprocessor complex that is required to process primary miRNA transcripts (pri-miRNAs) to release precursor miRNA (pre-miRNA) in the nucleus. Within the microprocessor complex, DGCR8 function as a molecular anchor necessary for the recognition of pri-miRNA at dsRNA-ssRNA junction and directs DROSHA to cleave 11 bp away form the junction to release hairpin-shaped pre-miRNAs that are subsequently cut by the cytoplasmic DICER to generate mature miRNAs. The heme-bound DGCR8 dimer binds pri-miRNAs as a cooperative trimer (of dimers) and is active in triggering pri-miRNA cleavage, whereas the heme-free DGCR8 monomer binds pri-miRNAs as a dimer and is much less active. Both double-stranded and single-stranded regions of a pri-miRNA are required for its binding. Involved in the silencing of embryonic stem cells self-renewal.<ref>PMID:15589161</ref> <ref>PMID:15574589</ref> <ref>PMID:15531877</ref> <ref>PMID:16751099</ref> <ref>PMID:16906129</ref> <ref>PMID:16963499</ref> <ref>PMID:17159994</ref> | |

- | A complex of Drosha with DGCR8 (or its homolog Pasha) cleaves primary microRNA (pri-miRNA) substrates into precursor miRNA and initiates the microRNA maturation process. Drosha provides the catalytic site for this cleavage, whereas DGCR8 or Pasha provides a frame for anchoring substrate pri-miRNAs. To clarify the molecular basis underlying recognition of pri-miRNA by DGCR8 and Pasha, we determined the crystal structure of the human DGCR8 core (DGCR8S, residues 493-720). In the structure, the two double-stranded RNA-binding domains (dsRBDs) are arranged with pseudo two-fold symmetry and are tightly packed against the C-terminal helix. The H2 helix in each dsRBD is important for recognition of pri-miRNA substrates. This structure, together with fluorescent resonance energy transfer and mutational analyses, suggests that the DGCR8 core recognizes pri-miRNA in two possible orientations. We propose a model for DGCR8's recognition of pri-miRNA. | ||
