Human Drosha Double Stranded RNA Specific Endoribonuclease,Drosha ELI
3,140.00 ₪
Ribonuclease III double-stranded (ds) RNA-specific endoribonuclease 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, DROSHA cleaves the 3' and 5' strands of a stem-loop in pri-miRNAs (processing center 11 bp from the dsRNA-ssRNA junction) to release hairpin-shaped pre-miRNAs that are subsequently cut by the cytoplasmic DICER to generate mature miRNAs.
Involved also in pre-rRNA processing.
Cleaves double-strand RNA and does not cleave single-strand RNA.
Involved in the formation of GW bodies.
