Abstract excerpt
Most RNA molecules adopt multiple alternative structures, forming dynamic ensembles that cannot be captured by single-structure prediction. Recent advances in chemical probing methods (e.g. DMS-MaPseq and SHAPE-MaP sequencing) now provide single-molecule signals that reflect this structural heterogeneity, enabling computational reconstruction of RNA conformational states. However, existing ensemble-inference...
