Journal ArticleDOI

Expanded sequence dependence of thermodynamic parameters improves prediction of RNA secondary structure.

TL;DR: An improved dynamic programming algorithm is reported for RNA secondary structure prediction by free energy minimization and experimental constraints, derived from enzymatic and flavin mononucleotide cleavage, improve the accuracy of structure predictions.
Journal ArticleDOI

RNAstructure: software for RNA secondary structure prediction and analysis

TL;DR: New extensions to RNAstructure are described, including a library of C++ classes for incorporation into other programs, a user-friendly graphical user interface written in JAVA, and new Unix-style text interfaces that serve to make RNA secondary structure prediction user- friendly.
Journal ArticleDOI

Incorporating chemical modification constraints into a dynamic programming algorithm for prediction of RNA secondary structure

TL;DR: A dynamic programming algorithm for prediction of RNA secondary structure has been revised to accommodate folding constraints determined by chemical modification and to include free energy increments for coaxial stacking of helices when they are either adjacent or separated by a single mismatch.
Book ChapterDOI

Algorithms and Thermodynamics for RNA Secondary Structure Prediction: A Practical Guide

TL;DR: The details of the free energy rules and of the latest version 3.0 software are described and future plans are also discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Accurate SHAPE-directed RNA structure determination

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that quantitative, nucleotide-resolution information from a SHAPE experiment can be interpreted as a pseudo-free energy change term and used to determine RNA secondary structure with high accuracy, comparable to the best accuracies achievable by comparative sequence analysis.
