Combinatorics of RNA Secondary Structures with Base Triples
The structure of RNA has been the subject of intense research over the last decades due to its importance for the correct functioning of RNA molecules in biological processes. Hence, a large number of models for RNA folding and corresponding algorithms for structure prediction have been developed. However, previous models often only consider base pairs, although every base is capable of up to t...
متن کاملComprehensive survey and geometric classification of base triples in RNA structures
Base triples are recurrent clusters of three RNA nucleobases interacting edge-to-edge by hydrogen bonding. We find that the central base in almost all triples forms base pairs with the other two bases of the triple, providing a natural way to geometrically classify base triples. Given 12 geometric base pair families defined by the Leontis-Westhof nomenclature, combinatoric enumeration predicts ...
متن کاملAsymmetric Genome Organization in an RNA Virus Revealed via Graph-Theoretical Analysis of Tomographic Data
Cryo-electron microscopy permits 3-D structures of viral pathogens to be determined in remarkable detail. In particular, the protein containers encapsulating viral genomes have been determined to high resolution using symmetry averaging techniques that exploit the icosahedral architecture seen in many viruses. By contrast, structure determination of asymmetric components remains a challenge, an...
متن کاملMolecular recognition by glycoside pseudo base pairs and triples in an apramycin-RNA complex.
Communications The aminoglycosides apramycin (yellow) and paromomycin (green) exploit different binding spaces at their target ribosomal decoding-site RNA although they share a common 2-deoxystreptamine scaffold (white center). More about these studies on molecular recognition can be found in the Communication by T. Hermann and co-workers on the following pages.
متن کاملGraph-Theoretical Methods in Computer Vision
The management of large databases of hierarchical (e.g., multi-scale or multilevel) image features is a common problem in object recognition. Such structures are often represented as trees or directed acyclic graphs (DAGs), where nodes represent image feature abstractions and arcs represent spatial relations, mappings across resolution levels, component parts, etc. Object recognition consists o...
