Combinatorics of locally optimal RNA secondary structures.
It is a classical result of Stein and Waterman that the asymptotic number of RNA secondary structures is 1.104366∙n-3/2∙2.618034n. Motivated by the kinetics of RNA secondary structure formation, we are interested in determining the asymptotic number of secondary structures that are locally optimal, with respect to a particular energy model. In the Nussinov energy model, where each base pair con...
متن کاملRNA Locally Optimal Secondary Structures
RNA locally optimal secondary structures provide a concise and exhaustive description of all possible secondary structures of a given RNA sequence, and hence a very good representation of the RNA folding space. In this paper, we present an efficient algorithm that computes all locally optimal secondary structures for any folding model that takes into account the stability of helical regions. Th...
متن کاملCombinatorics of RNA Secondary Structures
Secondary structures of polynucleotides can be view as a certain class of planar vertex-labeled graphs. We construct recursion formulae enumerating various sub-classes of these graphs as well as certain structural elements (sub-graphs). First order asymptotics are derived and their dependence on the logic of base pairing is computed and discussed.
متن کاملCombinatorics of Saturated Secondary Structures of RNA
Following Zuker (1986), a saturated secondary structure for a given RNA sequence is a secondary structure such that no base pair can be added without violating the definition of secondary structure, e.g., without introducing a pseudoknot. In the Nussinov-Jacobson energy model (Nussinov and Jacobson, 1980), where the energy of a secondary structure is -1 times the number of base pairs, saturated...
متن کاملRNALOSS: a web server for RNA locally optimal secondary structures
RNAomics, analogous to proteomics, concerns aspects of the secondary and tertiary structure, folding pathway, kinetics, comparison, function and regulation of all RNA in a living organism. Given recently discovered roles played by micro RNA, small interfering RNA, riboswitches, ribozymes, etc., it is important to gain insight into the folding process of RNA sequences. We describe the web server...
