Small nucleolar RNA U83B
Template:Abbreviation
Type: Gene; snRNA; guide; CD-box;
2° structure: Predicted; RNAalifold
Seed alignment: Marantidis E.
Avg length: 91.4 nucleotides
Avg identity: 87%

U83B belongs to the C/D family of snoRNAs. U83B like U83A has no documented RNA target and they share the same host gene with the C/D box snoRNA U43 (RPL3).[1] N.B. U83A/B/C have no sequence similarity with the U83 snoRNA that was cloned by Jady and Kiss (2000).[2]
