In molecular biology, Small nucleolar RNA SNORA62 (E2) belongs to the H/ACA class of snoRNAs.[1]

E2 is involved in the processing of eukaryotic pre-rRNA and has regions of complementarity to 28S rRNA.[2] E2 is encoded in introns in the gene for a laminin-binding protein.[3]

This family also contains the related ACA6, M2 and MBI-136 snoRNAs.[2][4]
