RNA-Puzzles: a CASP-like evaluation of RNA three-dimensional structure prediction.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report the results of a first, collective, blind experiment in RNA three-dimensional (3D) structure prediction, encompassing three prediction puzzles. The goals are to assess the leading edge of RNA structure prediction techniques; compare existing methods and tools; and evaluate their relative strengths, weaknesses, and limitations in terms of sequence length and structural complexity. The results should give potential users insight into the suitability of available methods for different applications and facilitate efforts in the RNA structure prediction community in ongoing efforts to improve prediction tools. We also report the creation of an automated evaluation pipeline to facilitate the analysis of future RNA structure prediction exercises.

RNA-Puzzles Round II: assessment of RNA structure prediction programs applied to three large RNA structures.
This paper is a report of a second round of RNA-Puzzles, a collective and blind experiment in three-dimensional (3D) RNA structure prediction. Three puzzles, Puzzles 5, 6, and 10, represented sequences of three large RNA structures with limited or no homology with previously solved RNA molecules. A lariat-capping ribozyme, as well as riboswitches complexed to adenosylcobalamin and tRNA, were pr...
متن کاملChapter 4 Why Can ’ t We Predict RNA Structure At Atomic Resolution ?
No existing algorithm can start with arbitrary RNA sequences and return the precise three-dimensional structures that ensure their biological function. This chapter outlines current algorithms for automated RNA structure prediction (including our own FARNA–FARFAR), highlights their successes, and dissects their limitations, using a tetraloop and the sarcin/ricin motif as examples. The barriers ...

متن کاملRNA-Puzzles Round III: 3D RNA structure prediction of five riboswitches and one ribozyme.
RNA-Puzzles is a collective experiment in blind 3D RNA structure prediction. We report here a third round of RNA-Puzzles. Five puzzles, 4, 8, 12, 13, 14, all structures of riboswitch aptamers and puzzle 7, a ribozyme structure, are included in this round of the experiment. The riboswitch structures include biological binding sites for small molecules (S-adenosyl methionine, cyclic diadenosine m...
