Secondary Information |
|---|
| Protein Function | Component of the microprocessor complex that acts as a RNA- and heme-binding protein that is involved in the initial step of microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis. Involved in the silencing of embryonic stem cell self-renewal |
|---|
| Biochemical Properties | DGCR8 possesses MAPK docking motifs that match both of the recently structurally defined motifs that are specific for JNK and ERK/p38 kinases.All 23 DGCR8 phosphosites in the N terminus,is required for nuclear localization and for the ability of DGCR8 to homodimerize. |

| Significance of PTMs | DGCR8 possesses MAPK docking motifs that match both of the recently structurally defined motifs that are specific for JNK and ERK/p38 kinases.DGCR8 can be phosphorylated by mitogenic ERK/MAPK, indicating that DGCR8 phosphorylation may respond to and integrate extracellular cues. |
|---|
| Additional Comments | DGCR8 function is clearly important, as it is essential for viability in mice and DGCR8-knockout embryonic stem cells show a proliferation defect.DGCR8 deficiency in the brain has also been suggested to cause behavioral and neuronal defects associated with the 22q11.2 deletion syndrome known as DiGeorge syndrome. |
