Small nucleolar RNA R64/Z200 family explained

Small nucleolar RNA R64/Z200 family
Symbol:	snoR64
Rfam:	RF00267
Rna Type:	Gene snRNA; snoRNA; CD-box
Tax Domain:	Eukaryota

In molecular biology, R64/Z200 is a member of the C/D class of small nucleolar RNA which guide the site-specific 2'-O-methylation of substrate RNA. This family can be found in Arabidopsis thaliana (R64) and Oryza sativa (Z200).^{[1] [2]}
