NUPACK: Analysis and design of nucleic acid systems.

Unlabelled: The Nucleic Acid Package (NUPACK) is a growing software suite for the analysis and design of nucleic acid systems. The NUPACK web server (http://www.nupack.org) currently enables:

Analysis: thermodynamic analysis of dilute solutions of interacting nucleic acid strands.

Design: sequence design for complexes of nucleic acid strands intended to adopt a target secondary structure at equilibrium.Utilities: evaluation, display, and annotation of equilibrium properties of a complex of nucleic acid strands. NUPACK algorithms are formulated in terms of nucleic acid secondary structure. In most cases, pseudoknots are excluded from the structural ensemble.
