Comments [?]

Function Required for formation of the RNA induced silencing complex (RISC). Component of the RISC loading complex (RLC), also known as the micro-RNA (miRNA) loading complex (miRLC), which is composed of @gn(DICER1), @gn(AGO2) and @gn(TARBP2). Within the RLC/miRLC, @gn(DICER1) and @gn(TARBP2) are required to process precursor miRNAs (pre-miRNAs) to mature miRNAs and then load them onto @gn(AGO2). @gn(AGO2) bound to the mature miRNA constitutes the minimal RISC and may subsequently dissociate from @gn(DICER1) and @gn(TARBP2). May also play a role in the production of short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) from double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) by @gn(DICER1).
case <OC:Mammalia>
Subunit Self-associates. Component of the RISC loading complex (RLC), or micro-RNA (miRNA) loading complex (miRLC), which is composed of DICER1, AGO2 and TARBP2. Note that the trimeric RLC/miRLC is also referred to as RISC. Interacts with EIF2AK2/PKR and inhibits its protein kinase activity. Interacts with DHX9 and PRKRA. Interacts with DICER1, AGO2, MOV10, EIF6 and RPL7A (60S ribosome subunit); they form a large RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC).
