In molecular biology, SNORD67 (also known as HBII-166) is a non-coding RNA (ncRNA) molecule which functions in the biogenesis (modification) of other small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs). This type of modifying RNA is 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.
HBII-166 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]
snoRNA HBII-166 is the human orthologue of the mouse MBII-166 [2] and is predicted to guide 2'O-ribose methylation of spliceosomal RNA U6 at residue C60. [3]
