SNORA17: SNORA17 is a small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) that has been identified in various studies [PMC4846597][PMC6423644][PMC5679375][PMC8522698][PMC8446661][PMC3747266][PMC5454292][PMC4755013][PMC9025840][PMC7154078][PMC6044101][PMC7801812][PMC5573159][PMC6381762][PMC2832892][PMC9932081][PMC7812872][PMC7244715]. It has been found to be one of the top upregulated genes in different contexts, such as in gene expression profiling studies and during oocyte maturation [PMC5679375][PMC6423644]. SNORA17 is also known to be unstable in heterologous cell systems, similar to other abundant snoRNAs like SNORA39 and SNORA17 in Drosophila and humans, respectively [PMC8522698]. It has been associated with nucleolar functions, xenobiotic enzyme activity, ubiquitin peptidase activity, and circadian functions [PMC8446661]. SNORA17 is thought to be encoded by the small nucleolar RNA host gene 7 (SNHG7) and is known to modify 28S rRNA [PMC3747266][PMC5454292]. It has also been found to overlap with other snoRNAs like SNORA43 [PMC5454292]. Additionally, SNORA17 has been identified as one of the differentially expressed snoRNAs following exosome treatment and prenatal T treatment [PMC6044101][PMC9932081]. The expression of SNORA17 has also been observed in various species such as humans, rhesus monkeys, mice, chickens, and L. bilineata [PMC2832892][PMC6381762][PMC7154078][PMC9932081].
