Researchers at the Center for RNA Research, Institute for Basic Science (IBS), in Seoul, have published a study with critical new insights into the structure and function of the Dicer enzyme. Dicer is an enzyme required for the biogenesis of miRNAs and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), which in turn are drivers of RNA silencing and post-transcriptional regulating of gene expression, one of the bodies’ many checks on protein production.
