SNORA38
Description
The SNORA38 (small nucleolar RNA, H/ACA box 38) is a snoRNA gene located on chromosome 6.
SNORA38 is a small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) that is involved in the modification of other RNAs. snoRNAs are transcribed by RNA polymerase II and are localized to the nucleolus, where they guide the modification of ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) and other non-coding RNAs. SNORA38 is predicted to guide the methylation of uridine residues in rRNA, which is a crucial step in ribosome biogenesis. This modification is essential for the proper folding and function of ribosomes, which are the protein synthesis machinery of the cell.
