Searching for alternate RNA structures in genomic sequences
Résumé
We introduce the concept of RNA multi-structures, that is a formal grammar based framework specifically designed to model a set of alternate RNA secondary structures. Such alternate structures can either be a set of suboptimal foldings, or distinct stable folding states, or variants within an RNA family. We provide several such examples and propose an efficient algorithm to search for RNA multi-structures within a genomic sequence.
