SNORD116-20
Description
The SNORD116-20 (small nucleolar RNA, C/D box 116-20) is a snoRNA gene located on chromosome 15.
SNORD116-20 is a small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) that is thought to be involved in the processing and modification of other RNAs. snoRNAs are a class of non-coding RNAs that are found in the nucleolus, a sub-compartment of the nucleus where ribosomes are assembled. snoRNAs guide the modification of other RNAs by base pairing with their target sequences and directing the activity of enzymes that catalyze these modifications. The specific function of SNORD116-20 is not yet known, but it is likely to be involved in the regulation of gene expression.
