چکیده
M.A. Roytberg, Institute of Mathematical Problems in Biology, Pushchino, Russia, Higher School of Economics, Moscow, Russia, [email protected] We propose a new definition of the loop, which on the one hand is a generalization of the definition of Mathews-Turner [1], and on the other hand allows to divide into loops an arbitrary secondary structure, not only the pseudoknot-free structure. Based on the description we have created the database of elements of secondary structures of experimentally determined structures of RNA.

Background: RNA plays key role in many aspects of biological processes and its tertiary structure is critical for its biological function. RNA secondary structure represents various significant portions of RNA tertiary structure. Since the biological function of RNA is concluded indirectly from its primary structure, it would be important to analyze the relations between the RNA sequences and t...

متن کاملSeismic Response of Building Structures with Sliding Non-structural Elements
Interaction between a structure under base excitation and heavy non-structural elements that it supports is significant in the seismic analysis and design of the structure. Heavy non-structural elements may slide/rock under base excitation, and this dynamic action affects the seismic behavior of the supporting structure. Hence, in this study, a numerical model was presented to describe the seis...
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...
