Assembly model of eukaryotic C/D RNP. (A) In vitro assembly. Active enzymes can be assembled from single and dual paralog (SP, DP) of Nop56 and Nop58. The SP-RNPs are less active than the DP-RNPs. Due to the lack of binding specificity between the box C/D motifs and Nop56/Nop58 proteins, the C/D RNA adopts both forward and reverse orientations in reconstituted DP-RNPs. (B) In vivo assembly. With assistance of assembly factors, Nop58 and Snu13 are first assembled on box C/D, establishing the asymmetric and specific organization of C/D RNP.
