RNA molecules with structure dependent functions are uniquely folded
2002
Nucleic Acids Research
Cis-acting elements in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression are often correlated with distinct local RNA secondary structure. These structures are expected to be signi®cantly more ordered than those anticipated at random because of evolutionary constraints and intrinsic structural properties. In this study, we introduce a computing method to calculate two quantitative measures, NRd and Stscr, for estimating the uniqueness of an RNA secondary structure. NRd is a normalized score
