| Description: Dicer cuts dsRNA into 21- to 25-bp siRNA or miRNA segments that are then denatured by RISC. RISC–guide strand complexes can degrade targeted mRNAs, block translation of target mRNAs, or enter the nucleus to modify chromatinDicer cuts dsRNA into 21- to 25-bp siRNA or miRNA segments that are then denatured by RISC.
