In molecular biology, small nucleolar RNA SNORA10 and small nuclear RNA SNORA64 are homologous members of the H/ACA class of small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA). This family of ncRNAs involved in the maturation of ribosomal RNA.[1] snoRNA in this family act as guides in the modification of uridines to pseudouridines.[2] This family includes the human snoRNAs U64 and ACA10 and mouse MBI-29.[3][4][5]
