DESCRIPTION

Also known as DHX33_HUMAN, DHX33, DDX33. Implicated in nucleolar organization, ribosome biogenesis, protein synthesis and cytoplasmic dsRNA sensing (By similarity) (PubMed:21930779, PubMed:23871209, PubMed:26100019). Stimulates RNA polymerase I transcription of the 47S precursor rRNA. Associates with ribosomal DNA (rDNA) loci where it is involved in POLR1A recruitment (PubMed:21930779). In the cytoplasm, promotes elongation-competent 80S ribosome assembly at the late stage of mRNA translation initiation (PubMed:26100019). Senses cytosolic dsRNA mediating NLRP3 inflammasome formation in macrophages and type I interferon production in myeloid dendritic cells (PubMed:23871209). Required for NLRP3 activation induced by viral dsRNA and bacterial RNA (PubMed:23871209). In dendritic cells, required for induction of type I interferon production induced by cytoplasmic dsRNA via the activation of MAPK and NF-kappa-B signaling pathways (By similarity). Interacts with UBTF (PubMed:21930779). Interacts with DDX3X, EIF3G and EIF3H; the interaction is independent of RNA (PubMed:26100019). Interacts (via HA2 region and Helicase C-terminal domain) with the components of the large ribosomal subunit RPL3, RPL7, RPL26 and RPL27 (PubMed:26100019). Interacts (via DEAH box) with NLRP3 (via NACHT domain) (PubMed:23871209). Binds to mRNA (PubMed:26100019). Binds to double-stranded RNA (via the helicase C-terminal domain) (PubMed:23871209). Interacts (via the helicase C-terminal domain) with MAVS (By similarity).
