Abstract

Background: Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are thought to be exclusively nuclear. Results: Doxorubicin stress results in significant accumulation of cytosolic snoRNAs via a pathway involving Nox4D and superoxide. Conclusion: snoRNAs are present in the cytoplasm and their cytosolic abundance is dynamically regulated. Significance: Previously unexplained snoRNA biology may be the result of snoRNA interactions with cytoplasmic targets.
