Can Clustal-style progressive pairwise alignment of multiple sequences be used in RNA secondary structure prediction?
Background: In ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecules whose function depends on their final, folded three-dimensional shape (such as those in ribosomes or spliceosome complexes), the se...
