Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) has been linked to chronic lung inflammation. Drosha ribonuclease III (DROSHA), a class 2 ribonuclease III enzyme, plays a key role in microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis.

Summary: The activation of the DNA-damage response (DDR) enforces the transcriptional silencing of genes near DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), a process called DSB-induced silencing in cis (DISC).

Association of DROSHA Variants with Susceptibility and Outcomes in Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia [PDF]
MicroRNAs are key regulators of lymphoid differentiation, exhibiting a pivotal role in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) biology and prognosis. The initial steps of canonical miRNA biogenesis involve the microprocessor complex processing the primary ...

Diabetes promotes an angiostatic phenotype in the microvascular endothelium of skeletal muscle and skin. Angiogenesis-related microRNAs (angiomiRs) regulate angiogenesis through the translational repression of pro- and anti-angiogenic genes.

Drosha is critical for producing mature microRNAs (miRNAs) from their precursor molecules and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs). Although Drosha has been well characterized in most vertebrate species, identifying the Japanese flounder Drosha has remained ...

DROSHA but not DICER is required for human haematopoietic stem cell function
Objectives DROSHA and DICER have central roles in the biogenesis of microRNAs (miRNAs). However, we previously showed that in the murine system, DROSHA has an alternate function where it directly recognises and cleaves protein‐coding messenger (m)RNAs ...

Essential role of the amino-terminal region of Drosha for the Microprocessor function
Summary: Drosha is a core component of the Microprocessor complex that cleaves primary-microRNAs (pri-miRNAs) to generate precursor-miRNA and regulates the expression of ∼80 ribosomal protein (RP) genes.

miRNA biogenesis enzyme Drosha is required for vascular smooth muscle cell survival. [PDF]
miRNA biogenesis enzyme Drosha cleaves double-stranded primary miRNA by interacting with double-stranded RNA binding protein DGCR8 and processes primary miRNA into precursor miRNA to participate in the miRNA biogenesis pathway.

Genetic variation in DROSHA 3'UTR regulated by hsa-miR-27b is associated with bladder cancer risk. [PDF]
PURPOSE: miRNAs can regulate the biological processes, including differentiation, proliferation and apoptosis. DICER and DROSHA are two members of RNase III family, playing pivotal roles in the pathway of miRNAs biogenesis. In this study, we hypothesized

Acetylation of drosha on the N-terminus inhibits its degradation by ubiquitination. [PDF]
The RNase III enzyme Drosha initiates microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis in the nucleus by cleaving primary miRNA transcripts into shorter precursor molecules that are subsequently exported into the cytoplasm for further processing.
