The human Dicer helicase domain mediates ATP hydrolysis and RNA rearrangement
2023-06-28
Abstract excerpt
Vertebrates have one Dicer ortholog that generates both microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), in contrast to the multiple Dicer-like proteins found in flies and plants. Here, we focus on the functions of the human Dicer (hDicer) helicase domain. The helicase domain of hDicer is known to recognize pre-miRNA substrates through interactions with their apical loop regions. Besides interacting with ca...
