MIfold 2 – Predicting RNA Structure using Mutual Information

MIfold 2

:: DESCRIPTION

MIfold is a matlab toolbox that uses mutual information and related measures to infer and display secondary structures (including pseudoknots). Given a sequence alignment MIfold computes and displays the mutual and sequence information of the alignment. MIfold also uses a dynamic programming algorithm to predict the secondary structure with maximal total mutual information.
