Dicer1 is essential for female fertility and normal development of the female reproductive system.
Endocrinology ·doi:10.1210/en.2008-0294

The ribonuclease III endonuclease, Dicer1 (also known as Dicer), is essential for the synthesis of the 19-25 nucleotide noncoding RNAs known as micro-RNAs (miRNAs). These miRNAs associate with the RNA-induced silencing complex to regulate g…
