Summary: SNORD50A belongs to the C/D box class of small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs), which are thought to function as guide RNAs in the site-specific ribose methylation of preribosomal RNA (Kiss-Laszlo et al., 1996 [PubMed 8674114]).[supplied by OMIM, Nov 2009]

What's a GeneRIF?

SNORD50A/B RNAs shape the composition of proteins proximal to KRAS, notably by inhibiting KRAS proximity to the SNARE vesicular transport proteins
Title: KRAS regulation by small non-coding RNAs and SNARE proteins.
SNORD50A directly binds and inhibits K-Ras and is recurrently deleted in human cancer.
Title: The noncoding RNAs SNORD50A and SNORD50B bind K-Ras and are recurrently deleted in human cancer.
Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)
Title: Implication of snoRNA U50 in human breast cancer.
These results suggest that noncoding snoRNA U50 plays a role in the development and/or progression of breast cancer.
Title: Implication of snoRNA U50 in human breast cancer.
These findings establish snoRNA U50 as a reasonable candidate for the 6q tumor-suppressor gene in prostate cancer and likely in other types of cancers.
Title: SnoRNA U50 is a candidate tumor-suppressor gene at 6q14.3 with a mutation associated with clinically significant prostate cancer.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
