SNORD116-23
Description
The SNORD116-23 (small nucleolar RNA, C/D box 116-23) is a snoRNA gene located on chromosome 15.
SNORD116-23 is a small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) that is involved in the modification of other RNAs. It is thought to guide the methylation of uridine residues in ribosomal RNA (rRNA). snoRNAs are transcribed by RNA polymerase II and are processed into mature forms by a series of enzymatic steps. They are found in the nucleolus, a subcellular compartment that is responsible for ribosome biogenesis.
