Abstract:
We are developing a computational system to extract structural character of RNA. We made a program that classifies conformers by recognizing the hydrogen bonding patterns. The program was applied to a set of 279 conformers and they were classified into about 40 groups. The system is expected to be useful for searching structural motifs of RNA and classifying large number of generated conformers in structural modeling process.
