A deathly DNase activity for dicer.

Katsutomo Okamura1, Eric C Lai.   

Abstract

Recently reporting in Science, Nakagawa et al. describe an unexpected role for Dicer in chromosome fragmentation during apoptosis in C. elegans. They find that cleavage of DCR-1 by the caspase CED-3 redirects its regulatory activity, by destroying its dsRNase activity while activating an intrinsic DNase activity. Copyright 2010 Elsevier Inc.
