Note:
The maximal sequence length is set to 800
bases.
All non-nucleotide characters (i.e. not A,C,G,T,U,N) are
removed from the sequence. The nucleotide T is treated as
U.
Input can be in upper or lower case, even mixed.
N characters are allowed but are unpaired and undangled in
all computed secondary structures.
Choosing a maximal size for pseudoknots improves the
runtime drastically. Furthermore the results may become more
meaningful, since the current energy model doesn't seem to fit
very well for very large pseudoknots (>200 bases).
In suboptimal mode only the first one hundred structures
are displayed. These may not be the best one hundred, since the
order depends on the backtracking recurrencies. Use the Set
button for an automatic guess of a good value (only works when
sequence is pasted into text field). If this value turns out to
be inappropriate, i.e. far less than 100 structures are
reported, return to this page and slightly increase the energy
difference value. However, the maximal value is 10
kcal/mol.
The window mode is activated once you specify a window
size. The default increment is 1, unless another value is
provided. At the moment we display only the raw program output.
If you need the graphics of an individual folding, resubmit the
corresponding window's sequence alone without the window mode
selected.
