Rnall - local RNA secondary structure prediction

 

Signature

func(s:seq, overlapping:bool=false, terminatorPredict:bool=false, windowSize:int=30, energyThreashold:real=-5.0, symMapThreashold:real=10.0, loopSize:int=3, tweight:real=3.0, hybridEnergy:real=-11.7, produceCTFile:bool=false -> any)

 

Parameters

s:seq                  – the sequence (DNA or RNA) for structure predictions

 

overlapping:bool       – true for overlapping structure prediction (default false)

 

terminatorPredict:bool – terminator prediction (default false)

 

windowSize:int         – sliding window size (default 30)

 

energyThreshold:real   – energy threshold Kcal/mil (default –5)

 

symMapThreshold:real   - symmetric mapping score threshold (default = 10)

 

loopSize:int           - initial hairpin loop size (default =3)

 

tweight:real           - T weight calculation (default = 3)

 

hybridEnergy:real      - hybridization energy calculation (default = -11.7)
