In

small nucleolar RNA
(snoRNA) and also often referred to as a guide RNA.

snoRNA U101 belongs to the

C/D box class of snoRNAs which contain the conserved sequence motifs known as the C box (UGAUGA) and the D box (CUGA). Most of the members of the box C/D family function in directing site-specific 2'-O-methylation of substrate RNAs.[1]

U101 was identified by computational screening of the introns of

H/ACA box snoRNA ACA33.[3]

There is currently no predicted methylation target for U101.[2][3]
