3.1.26.3 | additional information | Drosophila melanogaster | Dicer-1 and Dicer-2 show different substrate specificity in vivo: Dicer-2 generates small interfering RNAs, siRNAs, from long double-stranded RNA, dsRNA, whereas Dicer-1 produces microRNAs, miRNAs, from pre-miRNA. Dicer-2 can efficiently cleave pre-miRNA in vitro, but phosphate and the Dicer-2 partner protein R2D2 inhibit pre-miRNA cleavage in vivo. Wild-type Dicer-2, but not a mutant defective in ATP hydrolysis, can generate siRNAs faster than it can dissociate from a long dsRNA substrate. Dicer-1 does not efficiently process long dsRNA | ? | - |
