U3 snoRNA binding
Definition
Target type: molecularfunction
Binding to a U3 small nucleolar RNA. [GOC:mah]
U3 snoRNA is a small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) that plays a crucial role in the processing and maturation of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) in eukaryotes. Specifically, U3 snoRNA is involved in the formation of the 18S rRNA, a key component of the small ribosomal subunit.
U3 snoRNA binds to the pre-rRNA molecule through a series of base-pairing interactions, guiding the action of various enzymatic activities. Its primary molecular function is to mediate the cleavage and processing of the pre-rRNA transcript, specifically at the 5' end of the 18S rRNA. This process involves the following key steps:
1. **Recognition and Binding:** U3 snoRNA binds to specific regions of the pre-rRNA molecule through complementary base pairing. This interaction positions the pre-rRNA molecule for proper processing.
2. **Cleavage and Processing:** U3 snoRNA guides the activity of RNase III-like enzymes, which cleave the pre-rRNA at specific sites. These cleavages are essential for removing extraneous sequences and generating the mature 18S rRNA.
3. **Maturation and Assembly:** After cleavage, the processed 18S rRNA associates with ribosomal proteins to form the small ribosomal subunit. U3 snoRNA may also participate in the assembly process by interacting with other snoRNAs and ribosomal proteins.
In summary, U3 snoRNA plays a vital role in ribosome biogenesis by mediating the cleavage and processing of the pre-rRNA transcript, ultimately contributing to the formation of functional ribosomes responsible for protein synthesis.'
