[DRB1_ARATH] Double-stranded RNA-binding protein involved in RNA-mediated post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS). Functions in the microRNAs (miRNAs) biogenesis by assisting DICER-LIKE 1 (DCL1) in the accurate processing from primary miRNAs (pri-miRNAs) to miRNAs in the nucleus. Forms a complex with SERRATE (SE) and DCL1 to promote accurate processing of pri-miRNAs by DCL1. Binds and assist DCL1 for accurate processing of precursor miRNAs (pre-miRNA). Indirectly involved in the production of trans-acting small interfering RNAs (ta-siRNAs) derived from the TAS1, TAS2 or TAS3 endogenous transcripts by participating in the production of their initiating miRNAs. Involved with argonaute 1 (AGO1) in the guide strand selection from miRNA duplexes, presumably by directional loading of the miRNA duplex (guide stand and passenger strand) onto the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) for passenger strand degradation. Does not participate in sense transgene-induced post-transcriptional gene silencing (S-PTGS). Involved in several plant development aspects and response to hormones through its role in miRNAs processing.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]

Publication Abstract from PubMed
HYL1 is a double-stranded RNA binding protein involved in microRNA processing in plants. HYL1 enhances the efficiency and precision of the RNase III protein DCL1 and participates in microRNA strand selection. In this work, we dissect the contributions of the domains of HYL1 to the binding of RNA targets. We found that the first domain is the main contributor to RNA binding. Mapping of the interaction regions by nuclear magnetic resonance on the structure of HYL1 RNA-binding domains showed that the difference in binding capabilities can be traced to sequence divergence in beta2-beta3 loop. The possible role of each domain is discussed in light of previous experimental data.
