Function

NHP2_YEAST Required for ribosome biogenesis. Part of a complex which catalyzes pseudouridylation of rRNA. This involves the isomerization of uridine such that the ribose is subsequently attached to C5, instead of the normal N1. Pseudouridine ("psi") residues may serve to stabilize the conformation of rRNAs. Essential for growth. Directly binds H/ACA snoRNAs.[1] [2] [3]
