Strategies for measuring evolutionary conservation of RNA secondary structures
Background: Evolutionary conservation of RNA secondary structure is a typical feature of many functional non-coding RNAs. Since almost all of the available methods used for predic...

The RNAz web server: prediction of thermodynamically stable and evolutionarily conserved RNA structures
Many non-coding RNA genes and cis-acting regulatory elements of mRNAs contain RNA secondary structures that are critical for their function. Such functional RNAs can be predicted ...

Evaluation of several lightweight stochastic context-free grammars for RNA secondary structure prediction
Background: RNA secondary structure prediction methods based on probabilistic modeling can be developed using stochastic context-free grammars (SCFGs). Such methods can readily co...

Predicting RNA secondary structure by the comparative approach: how to select the homologous sequences
Background: The secondary structure of an RNA must be known before the relationship between its structure and function can be determined. One way to predict the secondary structur...

Accelerated probabilistic inference of RNA structure evolution
Background: Pairwise stochastic context-free grammars (Pair SCFGs) are powerful tools for evolutionary analysis of RNA, including simultaneous RNA sequence alignment and secondary...
