New Method for Predicting RNA Secondary Structure
It has become clear recently that there are many RNAs that are not translated into proteins, instead they work as functional molecules. These RNAs are called “non-coding RNAs.” Predicting the secondary structure of these RNAs is important for understanding their functions. We will therefore focus on Nussinov’s algorithm and the SCFG version of Nussinov’s algorithm as useful techniques for predi...
متن کاملMethod for predicting RNA secondary structure.
We report a method for predicting the most stable secondary structure of RNA from its primary sequence of nucleotides. The technique consists of a series of three computer programs interfaced to take the nucleotide sequence of any RNA and (a) list all possible helical regions, using modified Watson-Crick base-pairing rules; (b) create all possible secondary structures by forming permutations of...
متن کاملThe secondary structure of guide RNA molecules from Trypanosoma brucei.
RNA editing in kinetoplastid organisms is a mitochondrial RNA processing phenomenon that is characterized by the insertion and deletion of uridine nucleotides into incomplete mRNAs. Key molecules in the process are guide RNAs which direct the editing reaction by virtue of their primary sequences in an RNA-RNA interaction with the pre-edited mRNAs. To understand the molecular details of this rea...
متن کاملTowards 3D structure prediction of large RNA molecules: an integer programming framework to insert local 3D motifs in RNA secondary structure
MOTIVATION The prediction of RNA 3D structures from its sequence only is a milestone to RNA function analysis and prediction. In recent years, many methods addressed this challenge, ranging from cycle decomposition and fragment assembly to molecular dynamics simulations. However, their predictions remain fragile and limited to small RNAs. To expand the range and accuracy of these techniques, we...
متن کاملCollecting and Characterizing RNA Molecules with Known Secondary Structure
RNAs are important elements in the metabolism of all organisms. The function of many RNAs is crucially dependent on their structure. Secondary structure is one of the most important factors determining 3d-structure, and functions. Having a more in-depth knowledge about the secondary structure of RNAs would provide researchers a better insight for understanding their functionality. In the last t...
