MeSH Heading: RNA, Small Nucleolar
Tree Number(s): D13.444.735.628.818.800; D13.444.735.790.552.937.800
Unique ID: D020537
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D020537
Scope Note: Small nuclear RNAs that are involved in the processing of pre-ribosomal RNA in the nucleolus. Box C/D containing snoRNAs (U14, U15, U16, U20, U21 and U24-U63) direct site-specific methylation of various ribose moieties. Box H/ACA containing snoRNAs (E2, E3, U19, U23, and U64-U72) direct the conversion of specific uridines to pseudouridine. Site-specific cleavages resulting in the mature ribosomal RNAs are directed by snoRNAs U3, U8, U14, U22 and the snoRNA components of RNase MRP and RNase P.
Entry Term(s): Small Nucleolar RNA; snoRNA
Previous Indexing: Cell Nucleolus (1975-1999); RNA (1975-1985); RNA, Small Nuclear (1986-1999)
