  name | small nucleolar ribonucleoprotein complex |
  namespace | cellular_component |
  def | "A ribonucleoprotein complex that contains an RNA molecule of the small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) family and associated proteins. Most are involved in a step of processing of rRNA: cleavage, 2'-O-methylation, or pseudouridylation. The majority, though not all, fall into one of two classes, box C/D type or box H/ACA type." [GOC:krc, GOC:mah, ISBN:0879695897] |
  comment | Note that 'nucleolar' in the term name is part of the RNA family designation 'small nucleolar', and does not necessarily reflect the location of the complex. |
