Target/Specificity | The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP1961b was selected from the C-term region of human Dcr-1. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay. |
Format | Peptides are lyophilized in a solid powder format. Peptides can be reconstituted in solution using the appropriate buffer as needed. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C. |
Precautions | This product is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | dcr-1 {ECO:0000303|PubMed:11641272, ECO:0000312|WormBase:K12H4.8} |

Function | Component of the ERI/DICER complex which is involved in processing amplified double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) intermediates during small-RNA-mediated gene-silencing or RNA interference (RNAi) (Probable). Involved in cleaving dsRNA in the RNAi pathway (PubMed:11641272, PubMed:20223951). It produces 21 to 23 bp dsRNAs (siRNAs) which target the selective destruction of homologous RNAs (PubMed:11641272, PubMed:20223951). Seems to process the precursor of the small temporal RNA let-7 which is involved in developmental timing (PubMed:11641272). Required for avoidance behavior induced by small RNAs derived from pathogenic bacteria such as P.aeruginosa (PubMed:32908307). Involved in innate immunity through its role in small RNA processing. |

Background
The Dcr-1 gene encodes a bidentate ribonuclease that is homologous to E. coli RNAse III. Dcr-1 is required both for RNA interference and for synthesis of small developmental RNAs. Dcr-1 interacts in vivo with RDE-4, a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) binding protein required for RNAi that interacts with trigger dsRNAs and may function to deliver dsRNAs to Dcr-1 for endonucleolytic processing.
