Gene Description

DGCR8, DGCR8 microprocessor complex subunit, encodes a nuclear RNase III that interacts with Drosha, forming a complex that plays a role in primary microRNA processing (PMID: 16963499, PMID: 15531879, PMID: 15574589) and microRNA biogenesis, which is required for embryonic stem cell renewal (PMID: 17259983) and skin development (PMID: 19114655). Mutations in DGCR8 have been identified in follicular thyroid carcinoma (PMID: 34171097) and Wilm's tumor (PMID: 25670082, PMID: 25670083), and increased DGCR8 expression has been identified in invasive ductal breast carcinoma (PMID: 26804549).

More about our plans

The public access version, CKB CORE™, encompasses 50 cancer-related genes, and every quarter, a select group of genes are exchanged, focusing on a specific theme. Users can search CKB CORE™ via gene and gene variants. The web-based, subscription version, CKB BOOST™, includes more than 2000 cancer-related genes and is designed to interrogate the knowledgebase for specific data attributes while enabling a robust browse-like feature when the desired content is unknown.

Downloadable data from CKB is available using the FLEX version. CKB FLEX delivers CKB content as a flat file or JSON, enabling CKB data integration.
