Dicer is a central enzyme in microRNA (miRNA) processing. We identified a Dicer-independent miRNA biogenesis pathway that uses Argonaute2 (Ago2) slicer catalytic activity. In contrast to other miRNAs, miR-451 levels were refractory to dicer loss of function but were reduced in MZago2 (maternal-zygotic) mutants. We found that pre-miR-451 processing requires Ago2 catalytic activity in vivo. MZago2 mutants showed delayed erythropoiesis that could be rescued by wild-type Ago2 or miR-451-duplex but not by catalytically dead Ago2. Changing the secondary structure of Dicer-dependent miRNAs to mimic that of pre-miR-451 restored miRNA function and rescued developmental defects in MZdicer mutants, indicating that the pre-miRNA secondary structure determines the processing pathway in vivo. We propose that Ago2-mediated cleavage of pre-miRNAs, followed by uridylation and trimming, generates functional miRNAs independently of Dicer.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3093307/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉 〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3093307/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cifuentes, Daniel -- Xue, Huiling -- Taylor, David W -- Patnode, Heather -- Mishima, Yuichiro -- Cheloufi, Sihem -- Ma, Enbo -- Mane, Shrikant -- Hannon, Gregory J -- Lawson, Nathan D -- Wolfe, Scot A -- Giraldez, Antonio J -- P01 CA013106/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P01 CA013106-38/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM081602/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM081602-01/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM081602-02/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM081602-03/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM081602-03S1/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM081602-04/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM101108/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL093766/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL093766-04/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R01GM081602-03/03S1/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01HL093766/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2010 Jun 25;328(5986):1694-8. doi: 10.1126/science.1190809.
