Abstract excerpt
The U3 nucleolar RNA has a remarkably wide phyletic distribution extending from the Eukarya to the Archaea. It functions in maturation of the small subunit (SSU) rRNA through a mechanism which is as yet unknown but which involves base-pairing with pre-rRNA. The most conserved part of U3 is within...
