mRNA optimiser 1.0 – Redesign mRNA Sequences to Optimise the Secondary Structure

mRNA optimiser 1.0

:: DESCRIPTION

The mRNA optimiser is a tool that redesigns a gene messenger RNA to optimise its secondary structure, without affecting the polypeptide sequence. The tool can either maximize or minimize the molecule minimum free energy (MFE), thus resulting in decreased or increased secondary structure strength.

RNAfamily – Java Viewer for RNA Secondary Structures

RNAfamily

:: DESCRIPTION

RNAfamily is a simple software tools that enables to display all secondary structures of a family of RNA molecules. It uses the linear backbone representation. RNAfamily provides usual graphical features: zooming, scrolling, etc. Colors of the stems correspond to matching stems. It is also possible to display the nucleotides composing a stem or the whole sequence.

Carnac 0.98 – Predict Secondary Structure for a set of Homologous RNA Sequences

Carnac 0.98

:: DESCRIPTION

Carnac is a software tool for analysing the hypothetical secondary structure of a family of homologous RNA. It aims at predicting if the sequences actually share a common secondary structure. When this structure exists, Carnac is then able to correctly recover a large amount of the folded stems. The input is a set of single-stranded RNA sequences that need not to be aligned. The folding strategy relies on a thermodynamic model with energy minimization. It combines information coming from locally conserved elements of the primary structure and mutual information between sequences with covariations too.
