Small nucleolar RNA
CLASS OF SMALL RNA MOLECULES THAT GUIDE CHEMICAL MODIFICATIONS OF OTHER RNAS
SnoRNP; SnoRNAs; SnoRNA; SnoRNA prediction software; C/D box
In molecular biology, Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are a class of small RNA molecules that primarily guide chemical modifications of other RNAs, mainly ribosomal RNAs, transfer RNAs and small nuclear RNAs. There are two main classes of snoRNA, the C/D box snoRNAs, which are associated with methylation, and the H/ACA box snoRNAs, which are associated with pseudouridylation.
