Multi-objective genetic algorithm for pseudoknotted RNA sequence design
RNA inverse folding is a computational technology for designing RNA sequences which fold into a user-specified secondary structure. Although pseudoknots are functionally important motifs in RNA structures, less reports concerning the inverse folding of ...

An RNA pseudoknot stimulates HTLV-1 pro-pol programmed −1 ribosomal frameshifting
Programmed −1 ribosomal frameshifts (−1 PRFs) are commonly used by viruses to regulate their enzymatic and structural protein levels. Human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is a carcinogenic retrovirus that uses two independent −1 PRFs to express ...

Pseudoknots in RNA folding landscapes
Abstract Motivation: The function of an RNA molecule is not only linked to its native structure, which is usually taken to be the ground state of its folding landscape, but also in many cases crucially depends on the details of the folding pathways such as stable folding intermediates or the timing of the folding process itself. To model

Predicting 3D structure and stability of RNA pseudoknots in monovalent and divalent ion solutions [PDF]
RNA pseudoknots are a kind of minimal RNA tertiary structural motifs, and their three-dimensional (3D) structures and stability play essential roles in a variety of biological functions. Therefore, to predict 3D structures and stability of RNA pseudoknots is essential for understanding their functions.

On the combinatorics of sparsification [PDF]
Background: We study the sparsification of dynamic programming folding algorithms of RNA structures. Sparsification applies to the mfe-folding of RNA structures and can lead to a significant reduction of time complexity.

McGenus: A Monte Carlo algorithm to predict RNA secondary structures with pseudoknots [PDF]
We present McGenus, an algorithm to predict RNA secondary structures with pseudoknots. The method is based on a classification of RNA structures according to their topological genus.

Altering SARS Coronavirus Frameshift Efficiency Affects Genomic and Subgenomic RNA Production
In previous studies, differences in the amount of genomic and subgenomic RNA produced by coronaviruses with mutations in the programmed ribosomal frameshift signal of ORF1a/b were observed.

Graph-Theoretic Partitioning of RNAs and Classification of Pseudoknots-II [PDF]
Dual graphs have been applied to model RNA secondary structures with pseudoknots, or intertwined base pairs. In previous works, a linear-time algorithm was introduced to partition dual graphs into maximally connected components called blocks and determine whether each block contains a pseudoknot or not.

The gene coding for small ribosomal subunit RNA in the basidiomycete Ustilago maydis contains a group I intron [PDF]
The nucleotide sequence of the gene coding for small ribosomal subunit RNA in the basidiomycete Ustilago maydis was determined. It revealed the presence of a group I intron with a length of 411 nucleotides.
