DROSHA

Universal Cellular Machinery · RNA Binding & Transcript Stability

How are long RNA precursors turned into microRNAs?

DROSHA makes an enzyme in the microprocessor complex that cuts primary microRNA transcripts in the nucleus. The resulting shorter precursors undergo further processing before they can regulate other messages.

Common Gene Name: drosha ribonuclease III
NCBI Gene ID: 29102
Chromosome: 5
