Mutational Patterns in RNA Secondary Structure Evolution Examined in Three RNA Families
The goal of this work was to study mutational patterns in the evolution of RNA secondary structure. We analyzed bacterial tmRNA, RNaseP and eukaryotic telomerase RNA secondary structures, mapping structural variability onto phylogenetic trees constructed primarily from rRNA sequences. We found that secondary structures evolve both by whole stem insertion/deletion, and by mutations that create o...
متن کاملExact matching of RNA secondary structure patterns
Many RNA structures are assembled from a collection of RNA motifs, which appear repeatedly and in various combinations. Identification of RNA structural motifs will enhance our understanding of RNA structures and functions. Searching for secondary structural patterns in sequence databases is the basic technique and fundamental problem for extracting and identifying such motifs. A number of algo...
متن کاملRNA CoSSMos: Characterization of Secondary Structure Motifs—a searchable database of secondary structure motifs in RNA three-dimensional structures
RNA secondary structure is important for designing therapeutics, understanding protein-RNA binding and predicting tertiary structure of RNA. Several databases and downloadable programs exist that specialize in the three-dimensional (3D) structure of RNA, but none focus specifically on secondary structural motifs such as internal, bulge and hairpin loops. The RNA Characterization of Secondary St...
متن کاملRNA-SSPT: RNA Secondary Structure Prediction Tools
The prediction of RNA structure is useful for understanding evolution for both in silico and in vitro studies. Physical methods like NMR studies to predict RNA secondary structure are expensive and difficult. Computational RNA secondary structure prediction is easier. Comparative sequence analysis provides the best solution. But secondary structure prediction of a single RNA sequence is challen...
متن کاملRNA Movies: Visualizing RNA secondary structure spaces
MOTIVATION RNA Movies is a system for the visualization of RNA secondary structure spaces. Its input is a script consisting of primary and secondary structure information. From this script, the system fully automatically generates animated graphical structure representations. In this way, it creates the impression of an RNA molecule exploring its own two-dimensional structure space. RESULTS R...
