A probabilistic model for the evolution of RNA structure
Background: For the purposes of finding and aligning noncoding RNA gene- and cis-regulatory elements in multiple-genome datasets, it is useful to be able to derive multi-sequence ...

Improved accuracy of multiple ncRNA alignment by incorporating structural information into a MAFFT-based framework
Background: Structural alignment of RNAs is becoming important, since the discovery of functional non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs). Recent studies, mainly based on various approximations ...

Multiple Structural RNA Alignment with Lagrangian Relaxation
In contrast to proteins, many classes of functionally related RNA molecules show a rather weak sequence conservation but instead a fairly well conserved secondary structure. Hence ...

MCALIGN2: Faster, accurate global pairwise alignment of non-coding DNA sequences based on explicit models of indel evolution
Background: Non-coding DNA sequences comprise a very large proportion of the total genomic content of mammals, most other vertebrates, many invertebrates, and most plants. Unravel...

Accurate detection of very sparse sequence motifs
Protein sequence alignments are more reliable the shorter the evolutionary distance. Here, we align distantly related proteins using many closely spaced intermediate sequences as ...
