Abstract
Small nucleolar RNAs represent an abundant, evolutionarily ancient group of noncoding RNAs which possess impressively diverse functions ranging from 2'-O-methylation and pseudouridylation of various classes of RNAs, through nucleolytic processing of rRNAs to the synthesis of telomeric DNA.
