It is a classical result of Stein and Waterman that the asymptotic number of RNA secondary structures is 1.104366 . n(-3/2) . 2.618034(n). In this paper, we study combinatorial asymptotics for two special subclasses of RNA secondary structures - canonical and saturated structures. Canonical secondary structures are defined to have no lonely (isolated) base pairs. This class of secondary structu...

According to experts in rhetoric, Interrogation refers to asking about a thing which is unknown to the speaker and aims at knowing something; they mention, however, that these statements deviate from their real purposes sometimes and refer to some other secondary meanings. Writers have mentioned more or less different secondary purposes mainly based on the Quran. More recent writers have also p...

This is the first study on phylogenetic relationships in the genus Artemia Leach, 1819 using the pattern and sequence of secondary structures of internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1). Significant intraspecific variation in the secondary structure of ITS1 rRNA was found in Artemia tibetiana. In the phylogenetic tree based on joined primary and secondary structure sequences, Artemia urmiana and pa...

The presence of highly regular secondary structure motifs in protein structure is a fascinating area of study. The secondary structures play important roles in protein structure and protein folding. We investigate the folding properties of protein by introducing the effect of secondary structure elements. We observed the emergence of several structures with both large average energy gap and hig...
