FMRP Interacts with C/D Box snoRNA in the Nucleus and Regulates Ribosomal RNA Methylation

Summary: FMRP is an RNA-binding protein that is known to localize in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus. Here, we have identified an interaction of FMRP with a specific set of C/D box snoRNAs in the nucleus. C/D box snoRNAs guide 2’O methylations of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) on defined sites, and this modi...
