A modification of Nussinov's algorithm (1) for (planar) secondary structure generation is described. Our algorithm postpones decisions on matches involving destabiling loops until they prove to be energetically more favourable than more local matches. We present, moreover, an alternative way of representing secondary structures which avoids unwarranted suggestions on higher order neighbourhood, can be automated easily, allows for any amount of annotation of the sequences, makes comparison of alternate foldings easy and is pleasing to the eye. 5S RNA sequences are used to illustrate the methods.
本文描述了一种对Nussinov算法(1)的修改,用于(平面)二级结构生成。我们的算法会推迟对涉及不稳定环的匹配的决策,直到它们在能量上被证明比更局部的匹配更有利。此外,我们提出了一种表示二级结构的替代方法,该方法避免了对高阶邻域的不合理暗示,易于自动化,允许对序列进行任意数量的注释,便于比较不同的折叠方式,并且视觉效果良好。5S RNA序列用于说明这些方法。
