SNORD87

Summary

SNORD87 (small nucleolar RNA, C/D box 87, HGNC:32746) is a small nucleolar RNA gene on chromosome 8q13.1.

Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) of the C/D class, such as SNORD87, are involved in 2-prime-methylation of preribosomal RNA precursors (Gogolevskaya et al., 2002 [PubMed 12119114]).

At a glance

• Gene type: non-coding (snoRNA) — no protein product; not a drug target. Variant/disease associations are omitted (they would be positional, from an overlapping protein-coding gene).
