In molecular biology, Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are a class of small RNA molecules that primarily guide chemical modifications of other RNAs, mainly ribosomal RNAs, transfer RNAs and small nuclear RNAs. There are two main classes of snoRNA, the C/D box snoRNAs, which are associated with methylation, and the H/ACA box snoRNAs, which are associated with pseudouridylation. SnoRNAs are commonly referred to as guide RNAs but should not be confused with the guide RNAs that direct RNA editing in trypanosomes.
In molecular biology, Small nucleolar RNA snoR86 is a non-coding RNA (ncRNA) which modifies other small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs).

In molecular biology, SNORA65 is a non-coding RNA (ncRNA) molecule which functions in the biogenesis (modification) of other small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs). This type of modifying RNA is located in the nucleolus of the eukaryotic cell which is a major site of snRNA biogenesis.

In molecular biology, snoRNA U67 is a non-coding RNA molecule that belongs to the H/ACA class of snoRNAs which are thought to guide the sites of modification of uridines to pseudouridines. This snoRNA guides pseudouridylation of position U1445 in 18S rRNA. This RNA is expressed from the intron of the host gene EIF4A1.
In molecular biology, U71 belongs to the H/ACA class of Small nucleolar RNA (snoRNAs). snoRNAs bind a number of proteins to form snoRNP complexes. This class are thought to guide the sites of modification of uridines to pseudouridines by forming direct base pairing interactions with substrate RNAs. Targets may include ribosomal and spliceosomal RNAs but the exact function of many snoRNAs, including U71, is unclear.
In molecular biology, Small nucleolar RNA SNORA74 (U19) belongs to the H/ACA class of snoRNAs. snoRNAs bind a number of proteins to form snoRNP complexes. This class is thought to guide the sites of modification of uridines to pseudouridines by forming direct base pairing interactions with substrate RNAs. Targets may include ribosomal and spliceosomal RNAs but the exact functions of many snoRNAs, including U19, are not confirmed. Co-precipitation of U19 snoRNA with RNase MRP RNA suggests that U19 may be involved in pre-rRNA processing.
