About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for DGCR8:
This gene encodes a subunit of the microprocessor complex which mediates the biogenesis of microRNAs from the primary
microRNA transcript. The encoded protein is a double-stranded RNA binding protein that functions as the non-catalytic
subunit of the microprocessor complex. This protein is required for binding the double-stranded RNA substrate and
facilitates cleavage of the RNA by the ribonuclease III protein, Drosha. Alternate splicing results in multiple
transcript variants. (provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: DGCR8_HUMAN, Q8WYQ5
Function: 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

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: DGCR8_HUMAN, Q8WYQ5 (See protein sequence)
Recommended Name: Microprocessor complex subunit DGCR8  
Size: 773 amino acids; 86045 Da
Cofactor: Binds 1 heme group per homodimer
Subunit: Monomer; in absence of heme. Homodimer; the association with heme promotes its dimerization. Component of the
microprocessor complex, or pri-miRNA processing protein complex, which is composed of DGCR8 (heme-free or heme-bound
forms) and DROSHA. The microprocessor complex may contain multiple subunit of DGCR8 and DROSHA. Interacts with ILF3,
NCL and DROSHA
Subcellular location: Nucleus. Nucleus, nucleolus. Note=Colocalizes with nucleolin and DROSHA in the nucleolus. Mostly
detected in the nucleolus as electron-dense granular patches around the fibrillar center (FC) and granular component
(GC). Also detected in the nucleoplasm as small foci adjacent to splicing speckles near the chromatin structure.
Localized with DROSHA in GW bodies (GWBs), also known as P-bodies
