Intertwined pathways for Argonaute-mediated microRNA biogenesis in Drosophila

Although Dicer is essential for general microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis, vertebrate mir-451 is Dicer independent. Instead, its short pre-miRNA hairpin is ‘sliced’ by Ago2, then 3′-resected into mature miRNAs. Here, we show that Drosophila cells and animals generate functional small RNAs from mir-451-typ...
