RNA Movies 2: sequential animation of RNA secondary structures
نویسندگان
چکیده
RNA Movies is a simple, yet powerful visualization tool in likeness to a media player application, which enables to browse sequential paths through RNA secondary structure landscapes. It can be used to visualize structural rearrangement processes of RNA, such as folding pathways and conformational switches, or to browse lists of alternative structure candidates. Besides extending the feature set, retaining and improving usability and availability in the web is the main aim of this new version. RNA Movies now supports the DCSE and RNAStructML input formats besides its own RNM format. Pseudoknots and 'entangled helices' can be superimposed on the RNA secondary structure layout. Publication quality output is provided through the Scalable Vector Graphics output format understood by most current drawing programs. The software has been completely re-implemented in Java to enable pure client-side operation as applet and web-start application available at the Bielefeld Bioinformatics Server http://bibiserv.techfak.uni-bielefeld.de/rnamovies.

RNA 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...
متن کاملRelation Between RNA Sequences, Structures, and Shapes via Variation Networks
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 کاملA zero one programming model for RNA structures with arclength ≥ 4
In this paper, we consider RNA structures with arc-length 4 . First, we represent these structures as matrix models and zero-one linearprogramming problems. Then, we obtain an optimal solution for this problemusing an implicit enumeration method. The optimal solution corresponds toan RNA structure with the maximum number of hydrogen bonds.
متن کاملDesign, simplified cloning, and in-silico analysis of multisite small interfering RNA-targeting cassettes
Multiple gene silencing is being required to target and tangle metabolic pathways in eukaryotes and researchers have to develop a subtle method for construction of RNA interference (RNAi) cassettes. Although, several vectors have been developed due to different screening and cloning strategies but still some potential limitations remain to be dissolved. Here, we worked out a simple cloning stra...
