Prediction of RNA secondary structure

Prediction of RNA secondary structure

C Delisi et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1971 Nov.

Abstract

Calculations of the free energy required to close single-strand loops by formation of a base pair in double-helical nucleic acids are reported. These results can be used to estimate the free energy of particular secondary structures for a given RNA molecule under conditions of high-salt concentration.
