2'-O-methylation (2'-O-Me) is a common nucleotide epitranscriptomics modification of ribosomal RNA (rRNA). The rRNA is transcribed from DNA and then used to create proteins through translation. [1] The resulting protein would normally be solely dependent on the gene it was translated from, but the methylation of the RNA would influence the ...
Methylation of rRNA upholds structural rigidity by blocking base pair stacking and surrounds the 2’-OH group to block hydrolysis. It occurs at specific parts of eukaryotic rRNA. The template for methylation consists of 10-21 nucleotides. [38] 2'-O-methylation of the ribose sugar is one of the most common rRNA modifications. [40]
Most of the members of the box C/D family function in directing site-specific 2'-O-methylation of substrate RNAs. [1] U16 is predicted to guide the 2'O-ribose methylation of 18S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) residue A484 [2] and is encoded within an intron of the gene for ribosomal proteins L1 in animals. [3] This snoRNA was independently named MBII-98 ...
This type of cap, with just the (m 7 G) in position is called a cap 0 structure. The ribose of the adjacent nucleotide may also be methylated to give a cap 1. Methylation of nucleotides downstream of the RNA molecule produce cap 2, cap 3 structures and so on. In these cases the methyl groups are added to the 2' OH groups of the ribose sugar.
Ribosomes are the macromolecular machines that are responsible for mRNA translation into proteins. The eukaryotic ribosome, also called the 80S ribosome, is made up of two subunits – the large 60S subunit (which contains the 25S [in plants] or 28S [in mammals], 5.8S, and 5S rRNA and 46 ribosomal proteins) and a small 40S subunit (which contains the 18S rRNA and 33 ribosomal proteins).

This snoRNA is the human orthologue of mouse snoRNA MBII-336. [2] SNORD93 is predicted to guide the 2'O-ribose methylation of 18S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) residue A576. [ 3 ] Additionally, SNORD93 can be processed into a smaller, microRNA-like fragment (termed snoRNA-derived RNA(sdRNA)) that contributes to the malignant phenotype of breast cancer ...
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]
Most of the members of the box C/D family function in directing site-specific 2'-O-methylation of substrate RNAs. [1] snoRNA U79 is found in intron 7 of the GAS5 gene in humans and is also present in mice. [2] U79 is predicted to guide the 2'O-ribose methylation of 28S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) residue A3809. [3]
