RNU6-66P
Description
The RNU6-66P (RNA, U6 small nuclear 66, pseudogene) is a pseudo gene located on chromosome 13.
RNU6-66P is a small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) that is involved in the modification of other RNAs. It is predicted to guide the 2'-O-methylation of rRNA. snoRNAs are transcribed by RNA polymerase II and are typically located in the nucleolus, the site of ribosome biogenesis. RNU6-66P is predicted to be a C/D box snoRNA, based on the presence of conserved C and D boxes within its sequence. These boxes are involved in the recognition of target RNAs and the recruitment of modifying enzymes. RNU6-66P is also predicted to be a H/ACA box snoRNA, based on the presence of conserved H and ACA boxes within its sequence. These boxes are involved in the pseudouridylation of target RNAs. The exact function of RNU6-66P in the cell is still being investigated, but its predicted involvement in rRNA modification suggests that it may play a role in ribosome biogenesis and protein synthesis.
