Summary
SNORD50A (small nucleolar RNA, C/D box 50A, HGNC:10200) is a gene on chromosome 6q14.3.
SNORD50A belongs to the C/D box class of small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs), which are thought to function as guide RNAs in the site-specific ribose methylation of preribosomal RNA (Kiss-Laszlo et al., 1996 [PubMed 8674114]).

Literature-anchored findings (GeneRIF, showing 4)
- These findings establish snoRNA U50 as a reasonable candidate for the 6q tumor-suppressor gene in prostate cancer and likely in other types of cancers. (PMID:18202102)
- These results suggest that noncoding snoRNA U50 plays a role in the development and/or progression of breast cancer. (PMID:19683667)
- SNORD50A directly binds and inhibits K-Ras and is recurrently deleted in human cancer. (PMID:26595770)
- SNORD50A/B RNAs shape the composition of proteins proximal to KRAS, notably by inhibiting KRAS proximity to the SNARE vesicular transport proteins (PMID:31712554)
