SPF 1.1 – Find Structurally Significant Regions in RNA Sequences

SPF 1.1

:: DESCRIPTION

SPF (Structural Pattern Finder) is a tool that identify regions of a given RNA or DNA sequence that possess a high probability of being structured. This is achieved by computing, for each region, the difference between the folding free energy of the native sequence with the average folding free energy of randomized sequences of the same base composition.
