Specialized box C/D snoRNPs act as antisense guides to target RNA base acetylation.

Specialized box C/D snoRNPs act as antisense guides to target RNA base acetylation.

Box C/D snoRNAs are known to guide site-specific ribose methylation of ribosomal RNA. Here, we demonstrate a novel and unexpected role for box C/D snoRNAs in guiding 18S rRNA acetylation in yeast. Our results demonstrate, for the first time, that the acetylation of two cytosine residues in 18S rRNA...
