A statistical sampling algorithm for RNA secondary structure prediction.
An RNA molecule, particularly a long-chain mRNA, may exist as a population of structures. Further more, multiple structures have been demonstrated to play important functional roles. Thus, a representation of the ensemble of probable structures is of interest. We present a statistical algorithm to sample rigorously and exactly from the Boltzmann ensemble of secondary structures. The forward ste...
متن کاملA Bayesian Statistical Algorithm for RNA Secondary Structure Prediction
A Bayesian approach for predicting RNA secondary structure that addresses the following three open issues is described: (1) the need for a representation of the full ensemble of probable structures; (2) the need to specify a fixed set of energy parameters; (3) the desire to make statistical inferences on all variables in the problem. It has recently been shown that Bayesian inference can be emp...
متن کاملRNA Sampler: a new sampling based algorithm for common RNA secondary structure prediction and structural alignment
MOTIVATION Non-coding RNA genes and RNA structural regulatory motifs play important roles in gene regulation and other cellular functions. They are often characterized by specific secondary structures that are critical to their functions and are often conserved in phylogenetically or functionally related sequences. Predicting common RNA secondary structures in multiple unaligned sequences remai...
متن کاملA n2 RNA Secondary Structure Prediction Algorithm
Several state-of-the-art tools for predicting RNA secondary structures have worst-case time and space requirements of O(n3) and O(n2) for sequence length n, limiting their applicability for practical purposes. Accordingly, biologists are interested in getting results faster, where a moderate loss of accuracy would willingly be tolerated. For this reason, we propose a novel algorithm for structu...
متن کاملA Progressive Folding Algorithm for RNA Secondary Structure Prediction
RNA secondary structure prediction is an area where computational techniques have shown great promise. Most RNA secondary structure prediction algorithms use dynamic programming to compute a secondary structure with minimum free energy. Energy minimization algorithms are less accurate on larger RNA molecules. One potential reason is that larger RNA molecules do not fold instantaneously. Instead...
