SNORD115-15


Description

The SNORD115-15 (small nucleolar RNA, C/D box 115-15) is a snoRNA gene located on chromosome 15.

SNORD115-15 is a small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) that is involved in the processing and modification of ribosomal RNA (rRNA). It belongs to the C/D box snoRNA family, which are characterized by the presence of two conserved sequence motifs, known as the C box and the D box. These motifs are essential for the function of C/D box snoRNAs, as they guide the methylation of rRNA at specific sites. SNORD115-15 is predicted to target the 28S rRNA, suggesting it plays a role in ribosome biogenesis.

SNORD115-15 is a member of the C/D box snoRNA family, which are involved in the processing and modification of ribosomal RNA (rRNA). These snoRNAs guide the modification of rRNA by base methylation and pseudouridylation, which are essential for the proper function of ribosomes. SNORD115-15 is predicted to target the 28S rRNA, suggesting it plays a role in ribosome biogenesis.

SNORD115-15 is also known as HBII-52-15.
