Multiple Structural RNA Alignment with Lagrangian Relaxation
In contrast to proteins, many classes of functionally related RNA molecules show a rather weak sequence conservation but instead a fairly well conserved secondary structure. Hence ...

Probabilistic structural alignment of RNA sequences
We propose an algorithm for estimating the common secondary structure, alignment, and posterior base pairing probabilities for two RNA sequences. A definition of structural align...

Multithreaded comparative RNA secondary structure prediction using stochastic context-free grammars
Background: The prediction of the structure of large RNAs remains a particular challenge in bioinformatics, due to the computational complexity and low levels of accuracy of state...

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...

Improved accuracy of multiple ncRNA alignment by incorporating structural information into a MAFFT-based framework
Background: Structural alignment of RNAs is becoming important, since the discovery of functional non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs). Recent studies, mainly based on various approximations ...
