NF90–NF45 functions as a negative regulator of methyltransferase‐like 3/14 (METTL3/14)‐mediated N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) modification on primary microRNAs (pri‐miRNAs). NF90–NF45 binds to anti‐oncogenic pri‐miRNAs and inhibits their m6A modification, thereby suppressing the biogenesis of anti‐oncogenic miRNAs.

Understanding Recognition of Primary MicroRNAs by Human Drosha/DGCR8
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that regulate gene expression by suppressing messenger RNAs. The RNase Drosha, as part of the Microprocessor complex, performs the initial processing step in miRNA biogenesis.

DGCR8 and DROSHA are the minimal functional core of the Microprocessor complex essential for biogenesis of canonical microRNAs and for the processing of other RNAs. Conditional deletion of Dgcr8 and Drosha in the murine telencephalon indicated that these

ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a severe developmental anomaly with high etiological heterogeneity. Although numerous susceptibility genes have been identified, genetic factors alone fail to explain the full disease risk. Epidemiological data highlight the contribution of environmental exposures.

Drosha and Dicer: Slicers cut from the same cloth [PDF]
DROSHA and its partner DGCR8 form a heterotrimeric complex named Microprocessor, which is essential for microRNA biogenesis. A recent study by Kwon et al. in Cell reveals the structure of a DROSHA construct in complex with the C-terminal region of DGCR8, thereby unveiling the topology and interactions between components of the Microprocessor and ...

Hallmarks of brain aging regulated by microRNAs (miRNAs). This graphical abstract illustrates the central role of miRNAs in coordinating key biological processes associated with brain aging. miRNAs regulate multiple interconnected hallmarks, including genomic instability, telomere attrition, epigenetic alterations, loss of proteostasis and impaired ...

SMAD proteins control DROSHA-mediated microRNA maturation [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that participate in the spatiotemporal regulation of messenger RNA and protein synthesis. Aberrant miRNA expression leads to developmental abnormalities and diseases, such as cardiovascular disorders and cancer; however, the stimuli and processes regulating miRNA biogenesis are largely unknown.

Drosha drives the formation of DNA:RNA hybrids around DNA break sites to facilitate DNA repair
The mechanism through which Drosha and Dicer affect DNA repair is not clear. Here the authors use a high-throughput approach to uncover the role of Drosha in promoting DNA:RNA hybrids at DNA damaged sites.
