Thermodynamic characterization of naturally occurring RNA tetraloops.
Although tetraloops are one of the most frequently occurring secondary structure motifs in RNA, less than one-third of the 30 most frequently occurring RNA tetraloops have been thermodynamically characterized. Therefore, 24 stem-loop sequences containing common tetraloops were optically melted, and the thermodynamic parameters DeltaH degrees , DeltaS degrees , DeltaG degrees (37,) and T(M) for ...
متن کاملThermodynamic characterization of tandem mismatches found in naturally occurring RNA
Many naturally occurring RNA structures contain single mismatches. However, the algorithms currently used to predict RNA structure from sequence rely on a minimal set of data for single mismatches, most of which occur rather infrequently in nature. As a result, several approximations and assumptions are used to predict the stability of RNA duplexes containing the most common single mismatches. ...
متن کاملThermodynamic characterization of RNA duplexes containing naturally occurring 1 x 2 nucleotide internal loops.
Thermodynamic data for RNA 1 x 2 nucleotide internal loops are lacking. Thermodynamic data that are available for 1 x 2 loops, however, are for loops that rarely occur in nature. In order to identify the most frequently occurring 1 x 2 nucleotide internal loops, a database of 955 RNA secondary structures was compiled and searched. Twenty-four RNA duplexes containing the most common 1 x 2 nucleo...
متن کاملThermodynamic characterization of naturally occurring RNA single mismatches with G-U nearest neighbors.
Due to their prevalence and roles in biological systems, single mismatches adjacent to G-U pairs are important RNA structural elements. Since there are only limited experimental values for the stability of single mismatches adjacent to G-U pairs, current algorithms using free energy minimization to predict RNA secondary structure from sequence assign predicted thermodynamic values to these type...
متن کاملStructural characterization of naturally occurring RNA single mismatches
RNA is known to be involved in several cellular processes; however, it is only active when it is folded into its correct 3D conformation. The folding, bending and twisting of an RNA molecule is dependent upon the multitude of canonical and non-canonical secondary structure motifs. These motifs contribute to the structural complexity of RNA but also serve important integral biological functions,...
