SNORA36A


Description

The SNORA36A (small nucleolar RNA, H/ACA box 36A) is a snoRNA gene located on chromosome X.

SNORA36A is a small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) that is involved in the modification of other RNAs. Specifically, it is a C/D box snoRNA, which means that it guides the methylation of uridine residues in ribosomal RNA (rRNA). This methylation is essential for the proper folding and function of rRNA, which is a crucial component of ribosomes, the protein synthesis machinery of cells.

SNORA36A is thought to be involved in a variety of cellular processes, including cell growth, development, and stress response.

SNORA36A is also known as ACA36.
