In molecular biology, Small nucleolar RNA SNORA62 (E2) belongs to the H/ACA class of snoRNAs. [1]

E2 is involved in the processing of eukaryotic pre-rRNA and has regions of complementarity to 28S rRNA. [2] E2 is encoded in introns in the gene for a laminin-binding protein. [3]

This family also contains the related ACA6, M2 and MBI-136 snoRNAs. [2] [4]
