AI Article Synopsis

  • A user-friendly webserver allows simultaneous use of advanced methods for aligning and predicting secondary structures of noncoding RNA sequences without needing to download software.
  • Results from the various programs are displayed on a webpage for easy access and can be downloaded for further analysis.
  • The webserver offers additional metrics for evaluating predictions and provides a consensus prediction, and it is free to use without any login requirements.

Article Abstract

We present an easy-to-use webserver that makes it possible to simultaneously use a number of state of the art methods for performing multiple alignment and secondary structure prediction for noncoding RNA sequences. This makes it possible to use the programs without having to download the code and get the programs to run. The results of all the programs are presented on a webpage and can easily be downloaded for further analysis. Additional measures are calculated for each program to make it easier to judge the individual predictions, and a consensus prediction taking all the programs into account is also calculated. This website is free and open to all users and there is no login requirement. The webserver can be found at: http://genome.ku.dk/resources/war.
