Assembly of the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) consists of loading duplex (guide/passenger) siRNA onto and removing the passenger strand from Argonaute (Ago2). Ago2 contributes critically to RISC activation by nicking the passenger strand. Here, we reconstituted duplex siRNA-initiated RISC activity using recombinant human (h)Ago2 and C3PO, indicating a critical role for C3PO in hAgo2-RISC activation. Consistently, genetic depletion of C3PO compromised RNA silencing in mammalian cells. We determined the crystal structure of hC3PO, which reveals an asymmetric octamer barrel consisting of six Translin and two TRAX subunits. This asymmetric assembly is critical for the function of C3PO as a novel endonuclease that cleaves RNA at the interior surface. The current work supports a Dicer-independent mechanism for human RISC activation: 1) Ago2 directly binds duplex siRNA and nicks the passenger strand; 2) C3PO activates RISC by degrading Ago2-nicked passenger strand.
