SNORD37
Description
The SNORD37 (small nucleolar RNA, C/D box 37) is a snoRNA gene located on chromosome 19.
SNORD37 is a small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) that is located in the nucleolus of the cell. It is a member of the C/D box snoRNA family, which is involved in the processing of ribosomal RNA (rRNA). SNORD37 is thought to guide the site-specific 2‘-O-methylation of rRNA. This methylation is essential for the correct folding and function of rRNA.
SNORD37 is a member of the C/D box snoRNA family. C/D box snoRNAs are involved in the processing of ribosomal RNA (rRNA). They guide the site-specific 2‘-O-methylation of rRNA. SNORD37 has been shown to be involved in the methylation of 18S rRNA.
SNORD37 is also known as RNU37, U37.
