Description:

Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are involved in the processing and modification of rRNA in the nucleolus.
There are two main classes of snoRNAs: the box C/D class, and the box H/ACA
class. U3 snoRNA is a member of the box C/D class. Indeed, the box C/D
element is a subset of the six short sequence elements found in all U3 snoRNAs,
namely boxes A, A', B, C, C', and D. The U3 snoRNA secondary structure is
characterised by a small 5' domain (with boxes A and A'), and a larger 3'
domain (with boxes B, C, C', and D), the two domains being linked by a
single-stranded hinge. Boxes B and C form the B/C motif, which appears to be exclusive
to U3 snoRNAs, and boxes C' and D form the C'/D motif. The latter is
functionally similar to the C/D motifs found in other snoRNAs. The 5' domain and the
hinge region act as a pre-rRNA-binding domain. The 3' domain has conserved protein-binding sites. Both
the box B/C and box C'/D motifs are sufficient for nuclear retention of U3 snoRNA.
The box C'/D motif is also necessary for nucleolar localisation, stability and hyper-methylation of U3
snoRNA. Both box B/C and C'/D motifs are involved in specific protein interactions and are
necessary for the rRNA processing functions of U3 snoRNA.
