Product Specifications
Background
Dicer (also known as endoribonuclease Dicer or helicase with RNase motif) is a ribonuclease that participates in pre-microRNA (pre-miRNA) and double stranded RNA (dsRNA) cleavage. The cleavage of pre-miRNA into mature miRNA and formation of small interfering RNA (siRNA) from dsRNA are essential for gene regulation and DNA repair. Decreased levels of Dicer can result in Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD), the most common age-related blindness. Dicer impairment is also involved in cancer and RNA-based viral infection. The development of small molecule inhibitors or other strategies that affect Dicer activity can provide new therapeutical avenues for cancer treatment and AMD prevention.
