While Slicer activity of Argonaute is central to RNAi, conserved roles of slicing in endogenous regulatory biology are less clear, especially in mammals. Biogenesis of erythroid Dicer-independent mir-451 involves Ago2 catalysis, but mir-451-KO mice do not phenocopy Ago2 catalytic-dead (Ago2-CD) mice, suggesting other needs for slicing. Here, we reveal mir-486 as another dominant erythroid miRNA with atypical biogenesis. While it is Dicer dependent, it requires slicing to eliminate its star strand. Thus, in Ago2-CD conditions, miR-486-5p is functionally inactive due to duplex arrest. Genome-wide analyses reveal miR-486 and miR-451 as the major slicing-dependent miRNAs in the hematopoietic system. Moreover, mir-486-KO mice exhibit erythroid defects, and double knockout of mir-486/451 phenocopies the cell-autonomous effects of Ago2-CD in the hematopoietic system. Finally, we observe that Ago2 is the dominant-expressed Argonaute in maturing erythroblasts, reflecting a specialized environment for processing slicing-dependent miRNAs. Overall, the mammalian hematopoietic system has evolved multiple conserved requirements for Slicer-dependent miRNA biogenesis.
