SUMOylation at K707 of DGCR8 controls direct function of primary microRNA
DGCR8 (DiGeorge syndrome critical region gene 8) is essential for primary microRNA (pri-miRNA) processing in the cell nucleus. It specifically combines with Drosha, a nuclear RNase III enzyme, to form the Microprocessor complex (MC) that cleaves pri-miRNA to precursor miRNA (pre-miRNA), which is further processed to mature miRNA by Dicer, a cytoplasmic RNase III enzyme. Increasing evidences sug...
متن کاملThe Drosha-DGCR8 complex in primary microRNA processing.
RNase III proteins play key roles in microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis. The nuclear RNase III Drosha cleaves primary miRNAs (pri-miRNAs) to release hairpin-shaped pre-miRNAs that are subsequently cut by the cytoplasmic RNase III Dicer to generate mature miRNAs. While Dicer (class III) and other simple RNase III proteins (class I) have been studied intensively, the class II enzyme Drosha remains to be...
متن کاملNoncanonical function of DGCR8 controls mESC exit from pluripotency
Mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) deficient for DGCR8, a key component of the microprocessor complex, present strong differentiation defects. However, the exact reasons impairing their commitment remain elusive. The analysis of newly generated mutant mESCs revealed that DGCR8 is essential for the exit from the pluripotency state. To dissociate canonical versus noncanonical functions of DGCR8, ...
متن کاملHistone deacetylase 1 enhances microRNA processing via deacetylation of DGCR8.
Relatively little is known about the regulatory mechanisms of the Drosha/DGCR8 complex, which processes miRNAs at the initial step of biogenesis. We found that histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) increases the expression levels of mature miRNAs despite repressing the transcription of host genes. HDAC1 is an integral component of the Drosha/DGCR8 complex and enhances miRNA processing by increasing the...
متن کاملFerric, not ferrous, heme activates RNA-binding protein DGCR8 for primary microRNA processing.
The RNA-binding protein DiGeorge Critical Region 8 (DGCR8) and its partner nuclease Drosha are essential for processing of microRNA (miRNA) primary transcripts (pri-miRNAs) in animals. Previous work showed that DGCR8 forms a highly stable and active complex with ferric [Fe(III)] heme using two endogenous cysteines as axial ligands. Here we report that reduction of the heme iron to the ferrous [...
