Protein
H/ACA ribonucleoprotein complex subunit 2-like protein
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Function
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 (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the eukaryotic ribosomal protein eL8 family.
