SNORD15A
Description
The SNORD15A (small nucleolar RNA, C/D box 15A) is a snoRNA gene located on chromosome 11.
SNORD15A is a small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) that is involved in the modification of other RNAs. Specifically, it acts as a guide RNA for the methylation of uridine residues in ribosomal RNA (rRNA). This methylation is crucial for the proper folding and function of rRNA, which is essential for protein synthesis.

This methylation is crucial for the proper folding and function of rRNA, which is essential for protein synthesis. SNORD15A is located in the nucleolus, the site of rRNA synthesis and processing.
SNORD15A is also known as RNU15A, SNORNA, U15A.
