C. elegans Dicer stacks with the RIG-I-like receptor DRH-1 to cleave dsRNA

Claudia D. Consalvo, Parker J. Nichols, Elaina P. Boyle…·Brenda Bass

The paper reports cryo-EM structures of the C. elegans antiviral complex DCR-1·DRH-1·RDE-4, showing how these proteins stack and interact to cleave dsRNA.

Reconstitution of antiviral Dicer activity in vitro reveals distinct contributions of RDE-4 dsRNA-binding motifs

Elaina P. Boyle, P. Joseph Aruscavage, Claudia D. Consalvo, Brenda Bass

This study reconstitutes the antiviral Dicer complex in vitro to show RDE-4 stabilizes and activates it, with distinct roles for dsRBM2 and dsRBM3 in ATP hydrolysis and dsRNA cleavage.
