The microRNA-processing enzyme Dicer is essential for thyroid function.

The microRNA-processing enzyme Dicer is essential for thyroid function.

Dicer is a type III ribonuclease required for the biogenesis of microRNAs (miRNAs), a class of small non-coding RNAs regulating gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. To explore the functional role of miRNAs in thyroid gland function, we generated a thyrocyte-specific Dicer conditional k...
