What is RNAMST ? |
RNAMST is an efficient and flexible
RNA Motif Search Tool for RNA structural homologs. RNAMST web server accepts four
different kinds of input formats to facilitate user to describe a RNA
structure easily. Beside, several databases are provided and have been
processed by our algorithm. Therefore, the user can easily and quickly
search the RNA structural homologs against the huge amount of sequences. In addition,
RNAMST is able to search structure with asymmetric mispair and bulges that
makes the search more comprehensive and practical.

How
to use RNAMST ? |
RNAMST
provide a convenient interface on
web. The user can step by step describe the query RNA structure, select
search databases and set constraints, and the results of RNA structure
homologs are displayed on the screen immediately.
