Annotation transfered from Closely Related SWISS-PROT Entries

Annotation	Function Description	Confidence Level	Reference Protein
Endoribonuclease Dicer homolog 1	Involved in the RNA silencing pathway. Cleaves double-stranded RNA to produce microRNAs (miRNAs) of 21-24 nucleotides which target the selective destruction of complementary RNAs. Regulates by this way the development of the plant. May not be involved in small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) production.	confident	Q8LMR2
Endoribonuclease Dicer homolog 1	Ribonuclease (RNase) III involved in RNA-mediated post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS). Functions in the microRNAs (miRNAs) biogenesis pathway by cleaving primary miRNAs (pri-miRNAs) and precursor miRNAs (pre-miRNAs). Functions with DRB1/HYL1 and SERRATE proteins for accurate pri-miRNAs to miRNAs processing. 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 in the processing of natural siRNAs (nat-siRNAs, derived from cis-natural antisense transcripts) by cleaving 24 nucleotide nat-siRNAs into 21 nucleotide nat-siRNAs. Can produce RDR6-dependent endogenous ta-siRNAs derived from TAS1 and TAS2. Required for the production of 30-40 nucleotide bacterial-induced long siRNAs (lsiRNA). Acts redundantly with DICER-LIKE 3 (DCL3) to promote flowering via repression of FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC). Represses antiviral RNA silencing through negative regulation of the expression of DCL4 and DCL3.	confident	Q9SP32
