The conserved single-cleavage mechanism of animal DROSHA enzymes
Recently, the human RNase III enzyme DROSHA had been shown to exhibit single cleavage activity. Nguyen et al. report that this molecular mechanism of DROSHA is conserved in worms and flies, suggesting a common feature of animal DROSHAs.

Immunolocalization of a Drosha-Like Protein in Tetrahymena thermophila [PDF]
Drosha is an enzyme used by animals to process pri-miRNA into pre-miRNA. This processing normally occurs in the nucleus. The partly processed RNA molecule is then exported to the cytosol, where it is fully processed and then used in gene regulation ...

Modulation of MicroRNA Processing by Dicer via Its Associated dsRNA Binding Proteins
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that are about 22 nucleotides in length. They regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally by guiding the effector protein Argonaute to its target mRNA in a sequence-dependent manner, causing the ...

RNA activation in insects: From emerging evidence to molecular applications
Canonical RNA activation involves small RNAs interacting with promoter sequences, but there is also evidence of non‐canonical RNAa in eukaryotes. Emerging evidence suggests the presence of RNAa in insects. RNAa can be utilised as a tool for functional genomic studies in insects.

Unmasking the Influence of Viral Micro‐RNAs on Host Immunity
Viral micro‐RNAs are increasingly recognized as key modulators of host–virus interactions. They influence multiple immune functions, including antigen presentation, T‐cell activation, and cytokine signaling, while also tuning viral gene expression to promote persistence.

Posttranscriptional crossregulation between Drosha and DGCR8
SummaryThe Drosha-DGCR8 complex, also known as Microprocessor, is essential for microRNA (miRNA) maturation. Drosha functions as the catalytic subunit, while DGCR8 (also known as Pasha) recognizes the RNA substrate.

ABSTRACT Background Embryonal tumors comprise the majority of malignant central nervous system (CNS) neoplasms diagnosed in children under 3 years of age. Compared with their counterparts in older children, these tumors exhibit distinct molecular biology and a more aggressive clinical phenotype, while their management is complicated by the heightened ...
