== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/RNC_HUMAN RNC_HUMAN] Ribonuclease III double-stranded (ds) RNA-specific endoribonuclease that is involved in the initial step of microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis. Component of the microprocessor complex that is required to process primary miRNA transcripts (pri-miRNAs) to release precursor miRNA (pre-miRNA) in the nucleus. Within the microprocessor complex, DROSHA cleaves the 3' and 5' strands of a stem-loop in pri-miRNAs (processing center 11 bp from the dsRNA-ssRNA junction) to release hairpin-shaped pre-miRNAs that are subsequently cut by the cytoplasmic DICER to generate mature miRNAs. Involved also in pre-rRNA processing. Cleaves double-strand RNA and does not cleave single-strand RNA. Involved in the formation of GW bodies.<ref>PMID:10948199</ref> <ref>PMID:14508493</ref> <ref>PMID:15589161</ref> <ref>PMID:15574589</ref> <ref>PMID:15531877</ref> <ref>PMID:15565168</ref> <ref>PMID:16751099</ref> <ref>PMID:16906129</ref> <ref>PMID:17159994</ref>
