Forensic Context

A review summarizing microRNA biogenesis, function, and regulation notes that a hairpin within the DGCR8 5′ UTR, the mir-3618, is cleaved by Drosha to suppress DGCR8 expression, a mechanism of autoregulation in the miRNA processing pathway [Shang et al. DOI:10.1038/s41576-023-00611-y].
