This type of modifying RNA is usually located in the nucleolus of the eukaryotic cell which is a major site of snRNA biogenesis. It is known as a small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) and also often referred to as a guide RNA. U18 belongs to the C/D box class of snoRNAs which contain the conserved sequence motifs known as the C box (UGAUGA) and the D box (CUGA). Most of the members of the box C/D family function in directing site-specific 2'-O-methylation of substrate RNAs.[1] In humans and Xenopus laevis there are three closely related copies of U18 (called U18A, U18B, U18C) which are encoded in introns of ribosomal protein L1.[2] In yeast U18 is located in the introns of Elongation Factor 1 beta (EF1-beta). Related snoRNAs in Arabidopsis thaliana and rice Oryza sativa have been named R63 and Z106 respectively. Factors involved in the processing of the intronic snoRNA have recently been elucidated.[3] References1. ^{{Cite journal | last1 = Galardi | first1 = S.| last2 = Fatica | first2 = A.| last3 = Bachi | first3 = A.| last4 = Scaloni | first4 = A.| last5 = Presutti | first5 = C.| last6 = Bozzoni | first6 = I.| doi = 10.1128/MCB.22.19.6663-6668.2002 | title = Purified Box C/D snoRNPs Are Able to Reproduce Site-Specific 2'-O-Methylation of Target RNA in Vitro | journal = Molecular and Cellular Biology| volume = 22 | issue = 19 | pages = 6663–6668 | date=October 2002 | pmid = 12215523| pmc = 134041}} 2. ^{{cite journal |vauthors=Prislei S, Michienzi A, Presutti C, Fragapane P, Bozzoni I | title = Two different snoRNAs are encoded in introns of amphibian and human L1 ribosomal protein genes | journal = Nucleic Acids Res. | volume = 21 | issue = 25 | pages = 5824–30 | year = 1993 | pmid = 7507233 | doi = 10.1093/nar/21.25.5824| pmc = 310460 }} 3. ^{{cite journal |vauthors=Giorgi C, Fatica A, Nagel R, Bozzoni I | title = Release of U18 snoRNA from its host intron requires interaction of Nop1p with the Rnt1p endonuclease | journal = EMBO J. | volume = 20 | issue = 23 | pages = 6856–65 | year = 2001 | pmid = 11726521 | doi = 10.1093/emboj/20.23.6856| pmc = 125767 }} External links
