متن کاملFree Energy Landscape and Multiple Folding Pathways of an H-Type RNA Pseudoknot
How RNA sequences fold to specific tertiary structures is one of the key problems for understanding their dynamics and functions. Here, we study the folding process of an H-type RNA pseudoknot by performing a large-scale all-atom MD simulation and bias-exchange metadynamics. The folding free energy landscapes are obtained and several folding intermediates are identified. It is suggested that th...
متن کاملPredicting RNA pseudoknot folding thermodynamics
Based on the experimentally determined atomic coordinates for RNA helices and the self-avoiding walks of the P (phosphate) and C4 (carbon) atoms in the diamond lattice for the polynucleotide loop conformations, we derive a set of conformational entropy parameters for RNA pseudoknots. Based on the entropy parameters, we develop a folding thermodynamics model that enables us to compute the sequen...
متن کاملFolding 3-Noncrossing RNA Pseudoknot Structures
In this article, we present the novel ab initio folding algorithm cross, which generates minimum free energy (mfe), 3-noncrossing, canonical RNA structures. Here an RNA structure is 3-noncrossing if it does not contain three or more mutually crossing arcs and canonical, if each of its stacks has size greater or equal than two. Our notion of mfe-structure is based on a specific concept of pseudo...
متن کاملAn RNA Pseudoknot Folding Algorithm Based on Heuristic Searching
The general problem for the prediction of RNA secondary structure with pseudoknots is NP-hard. For a restricted class of pseudoknots, it was traditionally solved by the dynamic programming approach. However, these algorithms are computationally very expensive, when the input sequence or the contained pseudoknot is too long. We present a heuristic algorithm for RNA secondary structures with pseu...
