  Function in Host
Ribonuclease III double-stranded (ds) RNA-specificendoribonuclease that is involved in the initial step of microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis. Component of the microprocessor complex that isrequired to process primary miRNA transcripts (pri-miRNAs) to releaseprecursor miRNA (pre-miRNA) in the nucleus. Within the microprocessorcomplex, DROSHA cleaves the 3' and 5' strands of a stem-loop in pri-miRNAs (processing center 11 bp from the dsRNA-ssRNA junction) torelease hairpin-shaped pre-miRNAs that are subsequently cut by thecytoplasmic DICER to generate mature miRNAs. Involved also in pre-rRNAprocessing. Cleaves double-strand RNA and does not cleave single-strandRNA. Involved in the formation of GW bodies. [1-11]

Function of This Protein During Virus Infection
Virus NameSARS-COV-2 Protein Function Anti-viral [12]
Infected TissueLung Infection Time7-9 Days
Infected CellCalu-3 Cells (Human epithelial cell line) Cellosaurus IDCVCL_0609 
Method DescriptionTo detect the role of host protein DROSHA in viral infection, DROSHA protein Knockdown Calu-3 Cells were infected with SARS-COV-2 for 7 - 9 Days , and the effects on infection was detected through CRISPR-based genome-wide gene-knockout screen.
ResultsIt is reported that knockout of DROSHA increases SARS-CoV-2 RNA levels compared with control group.
