Gene: NOP58

Alternate names for this Gene: HSPC120|NOP5|NOP5/NOP58

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a core component of box C/D small nucleolar ribonucleoproteins. Some box C/D small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs), such as U3, U8, and U14, are dependent upon the encoded protein for their synthesis. This protein is SUMOylated, which is necessary for high affinity binding to snoRNAs.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 2

Location in Chromosome : 2q33.1

Description of this Gene: NOP58 ribonucleoprotein

Type of Gene: protein-coding
