DicerPathway

The degradation of endogenous mRNA in a sequence-specific manner can be induced by dsRNA [RNA interfernce (RNAi)], antisense transcription, or viral infection. In the current model for posttranscriptional gene silencing by RNAi, the ribonuclease III like enzyme Dicer processes dsRNA into small fragments (siRNA) of 21-25 nts. The siRNA is incorporated into the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), which targets and de......阅读全文

什么是Dicer(DCR)?

Dicer(DCR):是RNAase Ⅲ家族中的一员,主要切割dsRNA或者茎环结构的RNA前体成为小RNAs分子。对应地,我们将这种小RNAs分子命名为siRNAs和miRNA。Dicer有着较多的结构域,最先在果蝇中发现,并且在不同的生物体上表现出很高的保守性

关于Dicer酶的简介

  在研究RNA干扰机制的过程中,Bernstein等从已经发生RNA干扰的果蝇S2细胞中纯化了一种核酸酶Dicer,从中分离出21~23个碱基对的dsRNA片段。说明该核酸酶具有序列特异性,它能降解与dsRNA具有同源序列的mRNA。研究表明Dicer是来自果蝇RNA干扰必须的RNaseIII型蛋

关于Dicer酶的基本介绍

  该酶是一种核糖核酸内切酶,属于RNase III家族中特异识别双链RNA的一员,它能以一种ATP依赖的方式逐步切割由外源导入或者由转基因,病毒感染等各种方式引入的双链RNA,切割将RNA降解为21-23bp的双链RNAs(dsRNAs),每个片段的3’端都有2个碱基突出。

RNA干扰相关知识Dicer(DCR)

Dicer(DCR):是RNAase Ⅲ家族中的一员,主要切割dsRNA或者茎环结构的RNA前体成为小RNAs分子。对应地,我们将这种小RNAs分子命名为siRNAs和miRNA。Dicer有着较多的结构域,最先在果蝇中发现,并且在不同的生物体上表现出很高的保守性。

简述Dicer酶的作用机制

  Dicer的作用机制Bernstein认为分二步:  第一步:Dicer结合到dsRNA,dsRNA被加工成许多短片段,每个片段约22nt。  第二步:22nt的siRNA通过PAZ与含有PAZ的Argonaute蛋白结合,而RNase与后者形成多个亚单元的复合物,这样使得22ntsiRNA特异

Dicer酶结构及作用原理

1、Dicer酶在RNA干扰研究中会用到Dicer酶,Dicer酶是RNaseIII型家族中的蛋白酶,可特异识别dsRNA,它可以切割以各种方式进入到细胞内的dsRNA,将其切割成19-21bp大小的短RNAs。Dicer是来自果蝇RNA干扰必须的RNaseIII型蛋白。Dicer酶是RNase I
