Summary: Enables miRNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including nervous system development; regulation of gene expression; and regulation of nervous system development. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including circulatory system development; nervous system development; and regulation of gene expression. Located in cytoplasm. Part of RISC complex and RISC-loading complex. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynaptic density, intracellular component. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Used to study DiGeorge syndrome; dilated cardiomyopathy; and ovarian cancer. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in DICER1 syndrome; gastrointestinal system cancer (multiple); multinodular goiter; nephroma; and pleuropulmonary blastoma. Orthologous to human DICER1 (dicer 1, ribonuclease III). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
