RNAsalsa¶

Description¶

The software package RNAsalsa serves as a framework to perform improved RNA structure predictions as well as alignments of structural RNA sequences. It utilizes prior knowledge about structural patterns, adapted constraint directed thermodynamic folding algorithms, and comparative evidence methods. It automatically and simultaneously generates both highly corrected individual secondary structure predictions within a set of homologous RNA genes and a consensus structure for the set, and it takes then sequence and structure information into account as part of the alignment's scoring function. RNAsalsa uses structure information for adjusting and refining the sequence alignment and vice versa.
