Dicer蛋白在人体内由DICER1基因编码，是一种在RNA干扰中扮演着重要角色的RNA酶，属于III型RNA酶。在RNA诱导沉默复合体（RISC）的激活中，Dicer扮演着核心角色。在RNA干扰过程中，Dicer可以将shRNA（小发卡RNA）切割、加工为siRNA（小干扰RNA），将miRNA前体加工为miRNA（微RNA）。

功能

Dicer酶的作用是将shRNA剪切为siRNA或将miRNA前体剪切为miRNA

Dicer酶会将转录而成的、经Drosha酶初步处理的shRNA（小发卡RNA）剪切为siRNA，或将miRNA前体（pre-miRNA）剪切为miRNA。随后，siRNA或miRNA会激活RISC的组装和功能的行使，使RNA干扰得以继续进行^[6]。

结构

人DICER蛋白属于III型RNA酶，具有解旋酶活性以及PAZ结构域（Piwi（英语：Piwi）/Argonaute/Zwille）^[8]^[9]。除了上述结构域外，DICER蛋白还有两个RNaseIII结构域和两个双链RNA结合结构域（DUF283和dsRBD）^[10]。

目前的研究表明PAZ结构域可以和shRNA（小发卡RNA）3'端两个凸出的核苷酸结合，III型RNA酶结构域则会在dsRNA周围形成一个假二聚体，启动核酸链的剪切，使shRNA长度逐渐缩短。PAZ结构域和III型RNA酶结构域之间的距离由连接他们的螺旋结构决定，会影响到产生的miRNA/siRNA长度^[7]。Dicer的dsRBD结构域会与shRNA结合，不过目前并未解析出具体的结合位点。推测认为dsRBD区可能会与一些调节蛋白（比如人体内的TRBP，果蝇体内的R2D2、Loqs）结合形成复合体，调控RNA酶活性，进而调节终产物的产生^[11]。有推测认为解旋酶结构域会参与对长底物的处理^[11]
