SNORA51
Description
The SNORA51 (small nucleolar RNA, H/ACA box 51) is a snoRNA gene located on chromosome 20.
SNORA51 is a small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) that is involved in the modification of other RNAs. It is specifically involved in the pseudouridylation of ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs). Pseudouridylation is a post-transcriptional modification where the uracil base in RNA is converted to pseudouridine. This modification plays a crucial role in the structure and function of rRNAs, which are essential components of ribosomes, the protein synthesis machinery of cells.
