Abstract excerpt
MOTIVATION: Conformational switching in RNAs is thought to be of fundamental importance in several biological processes, including translational regulation, regulation of self-cleavage in viruses, protein biosynthesis and mRNA splicing. Current methods for detecting bi-stable RNAs that can lead to structural switching when triggered by an outside event rely on kinetics, energetics and properties of the...
