General annotation (Comments)

Function

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 By similarity.

Catalytic activity

Endonucleolytic cleavage to 5'-phosphomonoester.

Cofactor

Magnesium or manganese By similarity.

Subunit structure

Component of the microprocessor complex, or pri-miRNA processing protein complex, which is composed of DROSHA and DGCR8. The microprocessor complex may contain multiple subunit of DGCR8 and DROSHA. Interacts with DGCR8, SP1 and SNIP1 By similarity. Interacts with SRRT/ARS2. Ref.3

Subcellular location

Nucleus By similarity. Nucleus › nucleolus By similarity. Note: A fraction is translocated to the nucleolus during the S phase of the cell cycle. Localized in GW bodies (GWBs), also known as P-bodies By similarity.

Domain

The 2 RNase III domains form an intramolecular dimer where the domain 1 cuts the 3'strand while the domain 2 cleaves the 5'strand of pri-miRNAs, independently of each other By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Contains 1 DRBM (double-stranded RNA-binding) domain.

Contains 2 RNase III domains.
