Thermodynamics of RNA-RNA Binding
We present an extension of the standard partition function approach to RNA secondary structures that computes the probabilities Pu[i, j] that a sequence interval [i, j] is unpaired...

Local Alignment of RNA Sequences with Arbitrary Scoring Schemes
Abstract. Local similarity is an important tool in comparative analysis of biological sequences, and is therefore well studied. In particular, the Smith-Waterman technique and its ...

Experimental Comparison of Local and Shared Coin Randomized Consensus Protocols
The paper presents a comparative performance study of the two main classes of randomized binary consensus protocols: a local coin protocol, with an expected high communication com...

Considerations in the identification of functional RNA structural elements in genomic alignments
Background: Accurate identification of novel, functional noncoding (nc) RNA features in genome sequence has proven more difficult than for exons. Current algorithms identify and s...

Dinucleotide controlled null models for comparative RNA gene prediction
Background: Comparative prediction of RNA structures can be used to identify functional noncoding RNAs in genomic screens. It was shown recently by Babak et al. [BMC Bioinformatic...
