The small nucleolar particles of the C/D box snoRNP family participate in the biogenesis of ribosomes whose function is to decode the information carried by mRNA to synthesize proteins. Teams from the IMoPA (Nancy), IPHC/LSMBO/ProFI-Strasbourg (Strasbourg), GIM (Paris) and IGH (Montpellier) laboratories of the ANR snoRNPASSEMBLY consortium have just published a paper in the journal Nature Communications that describes genetic and physical links between snoRNP assembly factors and factors controlling chromatin architecture.
