Abstract excerpt
U24 and U36 are members of the box C/D-containing group of antisense snoRNAs which possess long (9-21 nucleotide) conserved stretches of sequence complementarity to 18S and 28S rRNA and act as guides for the site-specific ribose methylation of rRNA. Both U24 and two variants of U36 are encoded wi...
