C/D box snoRNAs have been shown to act as methylation guides for a number of RNA targets. U24 is encoded within an intron of the gene for ribosomal protein L7a in mammals, chicken and Fugu.
C/D box snoRNAs have been found to play a role as methylation guides for multiple RNA molecules. The U24 snoRNA is encoded within an intron of the gene encoding ribosomal protein L7a in mammals, birds, and Fugu, highlighting its importance across different species.
