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.
