Involved in microRNA (miRNA)-induced gene silencing through uridylation of deadenylated miRNA targets. Also acts as a suppressor of miRNA biogenesis by mediating the terminal uridylation of some miRNA precursors, including that of let-7 (pre-let-7), miR107, miR-143 and miR-200c. Uridylated miRNAs are not processed by Dicer and undergo degradation. Degradation of pre-let-7 contributes to the maintenance of embryonic stem (ES) cell pluripotency (By similarity). Does not bind RNA directly, but recruited to RNA targets by RNA-binding protein LIN28A. Also catalyzes the 3' uridylation of miR-26A, a miRNA that targets IL6 transcript. This abrogates the silencing of IL6 transcript, hence promoting cytokine expression (By similarity). May also suppress Toll-like receptor-induced NF-kappa-B activation via binding to T2BP. Does not play a role in replication-dependent histone mRNA degradation. Due to functional redundancy between ZCCHC6 and ZCCHC11, the identification of the specific role of each of these proteins is difficult. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:B2RX14, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16643855, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19703396, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25480299}. |NTP transf 2| |PAP assoc| |regulation of transposition, RNA-mediated| |polyuridylation-dependent mRNA catabolic process| |RNA uridylyltransferase activity| |negative regulation of transposition, RNA-mediated| |RNA 3 uridylation| |miRNA catabolic process| |pre-miRNA processing| |histone mRNA catabolic process| |oocyte maturation| |miRNA metabolic process| |negative regulation of transposition| |regulation of transposition| |nuclear-transcribed mRNA poly(A) tail shortening| |histone mRNA metabolic process| |production of miRNAs involved in gene silencing by miRNA| |ncRNA catabolic process| |miRNA binding| |dsRNA processing| |production of small RNA involved in gene silencing by RNA| |oocyte development| |oocyte differentiation| |gene silencing by miRNA| |posttranscriptional gene silencing by RNA| |posttranscriptional gene silencing| |nuclear-transcribed mRNA catabolic process, deadenylation-dependent decay| |cytoplasmic ribonucleoprotein granule| |oogenesis| |gene silencing by RNA| |female gamete generation| |stem cell population maintenance| |anatomical structure maturation| |RNA 3-end processing| |maintenance of cell number| |gene silencing| |cell maturation| |nuclear-transcribed mRNA catabolic process| |mRNA catabolic process| |regulation of gene expression, epigenetic| |developmental maturation| |RNA catabolic process| |germ cell development| |cellular process involved in reproduction in multicellular organism| |nucleobase-containing compound catabolic process| |ncRNA processing| |heterocycle catabolic process| |cellular nitrogen compound catabolic process| |aromatic compound catabolic process| |ncRNA metabolic process| |organic cyclic compound catabolic process| |posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression| |modification-dependent macromolecule catabolic process| |developmental process involved in reproduction| |gamete generation| |mRNA metabolic process| |multicellular organismal reproductive process| |sexual reproduction| |zinc ion binding| |multicellular organism reproduction| |nucleolus| |RNA processing| |cellular macromolecule catabolic process| |multi-organism reproductive process| |macromolecule catabolic process| |RNA binding| |reproductive process| |reproduction| |extracellular space| |cell development| |RNA metabolic process| |negative regulation of gene expression| |organic substance catabolic process| |cellular catabolic process| |gene expression| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp96|BI-2536 0.02μM R03 exp96]]|-2.18| |[[:results:exp51|Nifuroxazide 1μM R01 exp51]]|1.86| |[[:results:exp191|Hypoxia 5%O2 R04 exp191]]|2.27| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
