SNORD89


Description

The SNORD89 (small nucleolar RNA, C/D box 89) is a snoRNA gene located on chromosome 2.

SNORD89 is a small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) that is involved in the modification of other RNAs. Specifically, it is thought to guide the methylation of uridines (U) to pseudouridines (Ψ) in ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs). This modification is crucial for the proper folding and function of rRNAs, which are essential components of ribosomes, the protein synthesis machinery of the cell.
