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]
DGCR8 (DGCR8 Microprocessor Complex Subunit) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with DGCR8 include Digeorge Syndrome and Intracortical Osteogenic Sarcoma. Among its related pathways are DDX1 as a regulatory component of the Drosha microprocessor and Mitotic Prophase. Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include protein homodimerization activity and double-stranded RNA binding.
