Abstract excerpt
The C/D box small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) represent an essential class of small nucleolar RNAs that guide 2'-O-Rib methylation of ribosomal RNAs and other RNAs in eukaryotes. In Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), >100 C/D snoRNAs have been identified, most of them encoded by polycistronic gene clusters, but little is known on the factors controlling their biogenesis. Here, we focus on the identification of...
